Song Lyrics

"Something Wonderful"

by John Lawry
Album: Media Alert

I still remember being alone,
Life at the mission, with dreams of a home,
The emptiness around me made me run and hide,
A lonely, frightened child in a lonely, frightened time.

I still remember the joy in the air when somebody told me somebody cared,
This child of rejection was finally going home,
Home to a family who would call me their own.

Somebody took me by the hand.

Something wonderful,
It's incredible that someone wants me,
Someone cares enough to take me home,
Something wonderful,
It's incredible when someone wants you,
I've waited so long; I'm finally going home.

Two children of Jesus took a child no one would claim,
Well, they gave me a family, gave me a name,
The pain that lived inside me was slow and hard to heal,
The love outweighed the hate that told me not to feel.

The love of Jesus rescued me,
Somebody said they wanted me,
Oh.

Something wonderful,
It's incredible that someone wants me,
Someone cared enough to take me home,
Something wonderful,
It's incredible when someone wants you,
I've waited so long; I'm finally going.

There is an orphan in everyone's heart, always in search of a home,
Our Father reaches with open arms,
Reaching to us...reaching to us all.

Something wonderful,
It's incredible that someone wants me,
It's so wonderful,
It's incredible that someone wants me,
Someone cares enough to take me home,
Something wonderful,
It's incredible when someone wants you,
I've waited so long; I'm finally going,
I'm finally going home.
