Just the other night at a hometown football game
My wife and i ran into my old high school flame
And as I introduced them the past came back to me
And I couldn't help but think of the way things used to be
She was the one that I'd wanted for all times
And each night I'd spend prayin' that God would make her mine
And if he'd only grant me this wish I wished back then
I'd never ask for anything again
(chorus)
Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when your talkin to the man upstairs
That just because he may not answer doesn't mean he don't care
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.
She wasn't quite the angel that i remembered in my dreams
And i could tell that time had changed me
In her eyes to it seemed
We tried to talk about the old days
There wasn't much we could recall
I guess the Lord knows what he's doin' after all.
And as she walked away and i looked at my wife
And then and there I thanked the good Lord
For the gifts in my life.
*chorus*
Some of God's greatest gifts are all too often unanswered...
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.

Review about Unanswered Prayers Heart Warming | Reviewer: Brenda | 7/26/2006
Unanswered Prayers is absolutely the most wonderful song and takes all of us baby boomers back to our days in high school and how we felt then and how many times we did pray for the silliest things not knowing what it would have meant. But the good Lord knows and he answered the right prayers for us all! Great Garth!
