Master Plan

Master Plan
Lyricist: Dinah Satterwhite
Composer: Dinah Satterwhite

Lyin’ here in bed all day
Too scared to get up
All I see is a long pine box
And a little princess cup

I close my eyes but she’s still there
Just can’t believe it’s true
Look at you my precious girl
Why did God take you?

Well I’ll try to be strong on the outside
And not let them see me cry
It hurts so deep way down inside
Sometimes I try but I just can’t hide
That I really don’t understand
This great big master plan

I’ll try to take a few steps
I know I have to start
But I just can’t get out of bed
Oh Lord, my broken heart

The ghost of her says “daddy,
Please get up and fight
I’ll always be right next to you
And in your heart a light”

Well I’ll try to be strong on the outside
And not let them see me cry
It hurts so deep way down inside
Sometimes I try but I just can’t hide
That I really don’t understand
This great big master plan

How do people live with this
The pain is everywhere
Nothing will ever be the same
And nothing can compare

Her slippers seem to stare at me
My precious girl in pink
Please help me fill the emptiness
So I can be the man you think
I am

Well I’ll try to be strong on the outside
And not let them see me cry
It hurts so deep way down inside
Sometimes I try but I can’t hide
That I really don’t understand
This great big master plan

I guess I don’t need to understand
God’s great big master plan
