The things you need to stay alive
Aren't the things you need to live
Give ten percent to little smiles
You get back what you give
And I know that it sounds crazy
But try hot sauce on your PB&J
Have you ever thought just maybe
Change the name of worry to pray

Today I got a letter from Heaven
Cleaning out my Mamaw's house
I just smiled while I read it
I swear I heard her voice out loud
She said: I love you, God is real and now I get it
Today I got a letter from Heaven

No one knows what they're doing
When it comes to raisin' kids
So know that you're just human
To everyone but them
And I know you and your daddy
Don't talk too much anymore
Forgiveness might be a long road
But life is short

Today I got a letter from Heaven
Cleaning out my Mamaw's house
I just smiled while I read it
I swear I heard her voice out loud
She said: I love you, God is real and now I get it
Today I got a letter from Heaven
A letter from Heaven

I bet she would have gave it to me
The next time I came home
But life got in the way
And she couldn't wait that long

Today I got a letter from Heaven
Cleaning out my Mamaw's house
I called you after I read it
Hoping maybe we could work things out
Someone told me if we didn't, I'd regret it
Today I got a letter from Heaven
A letter from Heaven
A letter from Heaven
