Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
She arrived on a rainy Wednesday
The most beautiful little girl
Ten fingers and toes, a cute little nose
Ready to take on the world
[Verse 2]
The whole family gathered round her
As she lay in her mama's arms
Against all odds and all they knew
Somehow she came along
[Chorus]
With grace of God upon her
Heavenly sight from the start
The nurse said she's got her mama's eyes
So she must have her daddy's heart
When the whole world's flying at her
And the cold winds begin to blow
She just lowers her head and pushes on through
Cause there's one thing she knows
She's got her grandma's courage and her mama's arms
To keep her from falling apart
But most of all she won't fall
She's got her daddy's heart
[Verse 3]
On a hot summer day five years later
With her daddy way overseas
A knock on the door, what's the chaplain here for?
Mama why are you down on your knees?
[Chorus]
With the grace of God upon her
No power could keep them apart
Don't cry mama, don't cry cause you know
I've got my daddy's heart
When the whole world's flying at her
And the cold winds begin to blow
She just lowers her head and pushes on through
Cause there's one thing she knows
She's got her grandma's courage and her mama's arms
To keep her from falling apart
But most of all she won't fall
She's got her daddy's heart
[Bridge]
Even though he never came home
She can handle anything
Time and time and time again
He’d given her roots and wings
[Chorus]
When the whole world's flying at her
And the cold winds begin to blow
She just lowers her head and pushes on through
Cause there's one thing she knows
She's got her daddy's heart
She's got her daddy's heart
She's got her daddy's heart
