John and Sophie prayed one day

Longing for a child

You see they were unable to conceive

Found it hard to understand 

God with such a mighty hand

Didn't show compassion in their time of need



[Chorus]

God knew what he was doing

He knows what we need (we need Him)

Jesus wants us to know that we are His children

He chose us, chose to love us

We'll be with Him forever



John and Sophie prayed one day 

Seeking out an answer

Would Rachel understand that they had chosen her

You see it was no accident 

We really wanted you

Tears began to sting her eyes 

As she realized



[Chorus]



[Bridge]

As children of God we are heirs to His throne

We sacrifice and suffer so that we may share

His Glory



[Chorus]
