Verse 1
It was a sunny afternoon,
The heat was shining bright,
At a little laundromat,
God changed my life that day.
You first spoke to my daughter,
Then somehow we talked too,
You invited us to church,
Not knowing what God had planned to do.
Pre-Chorus
And little by little,
You became a part of us,
You opened up your heart,
And you led us back to God.
Chorus
You found me when I was lost,
You held me when I was weak,
When I could no longer find the strength
To kneel down and pray.
You reminded me of Jesus,
When my faith was slipping away,
Ate Flor, God used your loving heart
To bring me back again.
Verse 2
There were battles deep inside me,
There were fears I couldn't hide,
There was sorrow in my heart,
And I slowly stepped aside.
I became distant from the church,
My family drifted too,
And in the middle of my darkness,
I almost lost my way from You.
Pre-Chorus 2
There were things that tried to pull me
Far away from what was right,
People chasing selfish desires,
While I was searching for the light.
But God never let me wander
Far enough to lose His grace,
Because He sent you once again
To help me find my place.
Chorus
You found me when I was lost,
You held me when I was weak,
When I could no longer find the strength
To kneel down and pray.
You reminded me of Jesus,
When my faith was slipping away,
Ate Flor, God used your loving heart
To bring me back again.
Bridge
And then one day at the grocery store,
God crossed our paths again.
You looked at me and invited me,
“Come back to church again.”
I don't know if you could see it,
But something broke inside my heart,
Because I knew that God was telling me,
“This is where your journey starts.”
You didn't judge my brokenness,
You didn't turn away.
You showed me love and forgiveness
In the simplest kind of way.
Your kindness speaks of Jesus,
Your heart reflects His grace,
And when I feel I have no mother near,
I see a mother's love in your embrace.
Final Chorus
You found me when I was lost,
You protected me when I was weak,
You gave me courage to believe
When I could barely speak.
You reminded me of Jesus,
You helped me find my way,
And every time I fall behind,
You help me seek Him once again.
Ate Flor, I may not know
How to show what's in my heart,
But I hope somehow you feel my love
For all you've done from the start.
You're more than just a mentor,
You're a blessing sent from above,
A mother to my heart,
A faithful friend,
A vessel of God's love.
Outro
If someday you ever wonder
What your kindness meant to me,
Just know you helped me find the Lord
When I could no longer see.
And if I ever lose my way,
I pray I'll remember then—
God sent you into my life once,
And then He let you find me again.
