In a dark and empty room
In a place that no one knows
A girl sits in her tears
Is there anyone who hears?
She's only ten years old
With parents that always fight
And when her dad gets violent
There's no one around to stop it
So she sits in her closet
She hides each day after school
She whimpers in the dark
Each day there's more cracks in her heart
But her true Daddy knows her
Her true Father loves her
He sees the bruises she's had
From her abusive dad
He joins her in the dark
He sits down next to her
He purts His arm around her shoulder
And pulls her in closer
He yearns to share His healing
And His endless love for her
She asks Him show He is
And what He has to give
She listens with interest
And when He's done she's silent
Then she breaks down and cries
And looks Him in the eyes
She says,
"Will you be my new Daddy?
One who won't hurt me?
I love my other dad
But he hits me when he's mad!
"Please promise you won't leave
And that you'll protect me
I love you my Daddy
I love you my Daddy."
So together they sit
Hand in hand in her room
She has someone who hears
And who dry's her tears
