Heaven Is Waiting

There's a picture that hangs on the doctor's wall Of a child on a swing with all the colors of fall You were lost in that scene while the doctor describes The traces of cancer they found inside But I believe that God was listening And I believe that heaven cares And though there are no easy answers, I believe He hears your prayers (That) Good things happen when people pray, Even though your heart says there's no way When night-time swallows up our day I know someone... oh I know someone, Who will whisper peace be still, who can comfort us until, We're gonna see the light of day' Cause good things happen... when people pray Yeah I remember when those towers fell The whole nation cried, oh but who can tell Just how many prayers went up that day For the mothers and the fathers that were taken away But I believe that God was listening And I believe that heaven cares' Bout those mothers and fathers, the sons and the daughters Who lifted up their prayers (Chorus repeat) Bridge: Though we keep moving down these same old roads, And surely everything we carry, He already knows Well it looks like the sun's gonna shine today Though the night never gave any hint that way And we sure didn't think these storms would pass, That peace like the morning would come at last But with that peace, we know He's listening And with our hearts we know He cares And with our faith we keep believing that Jesus hears our prayers (Chorus repeat) Oh sweet Jesus, hear our little prayers
