Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Four of us For some years An empty chair An echo here Mom’s eyes held a quiet storm We laughed But the room felt torn A phone call in the middle of June Heartbeat flicker on a grainy screen They said “it’s a boy ” the nurse smiled wide We just cried Yeah We just cried [Chorus] So we gave you his name Said it soft Like a prayer Every time that we say it Feels like he’s still right here You walked into our hurting Turned the broken into blessed Little boy You helped us heal With the name on your tiny chest [Verse 2] We trace the letters on your door Same ones carved in our hearts before You laugh like him when you fall asleep Same crooked grin Same dimple in your cheek (oh) We tell you stories ‘bout the one you’re from How he lit up every room he walked in Now when you run down the hallway fast It feels like past and present overlap [Chorus] So we gave you his name Said it soft Like a prayer Every time that we say it Feels like he’s still right here You walked into our hurting Turned the broken into blessed Little boy You helped us heal With the name on your tiny chest [Bridge] You’re the answer we didn’t know we needed Hope in a pair of brand new eyes God held our pain Then He breathed you into it Now love’s the only thing that fills this life [Chorus] So we gave you his name Said it soft Like a prayer Every time that we say it Feels like he’s still right here You walked into our hurting Turned the broken into blessed Little boy You helped us heal You’re the gift we won’t forget [Outro] Four of us Now there’s you All this hurt turned into truth We were broken Now we’re blessed And His name’s written on your chest
