Unanswered Prayers
(SIR 21113) Thorsten Hubmann
OPENER
Grand Square
Just the other night, at a hometown football game
My wife and I ran into, my old high school flame
And as I introduced them, the past came back to me
I couldn’t help but think of
Do an Allemande Left and Weave
Sometimes I thank God, for unanswered prayers
Swing your lady round and Promenade her back home
Just because he doesn’t answer doesn’t mean he don’t care
Some of God’s greatest gifts, are unanswered prayers
FIGURE
Heads Square Thru count 'em 4 hands round
You make a Right Hand Star
The Heads Star Left, roll it one time and then
Same pair and do a Dosado
Swing Thru and then the Boys Trade
Swing the corner lady round and Promenade
Just because he doesn’t answer doesn’t mean he don’t care
Some of God’s greatest gifts, are unanswered prayers
MIDDLE BREAK
Grand Square
She was the one, that I’d wanted for all times
Each night I’d spend prayin’, that God would make her mine
And if he’d only grant me, this wish I wished back then
I’d never ask for anything
Allemande Left and Weave
Sometimes I thank God, for unanswered prayers
Remember when you’re talkin’ to the man upstairs
Just because he doesn’t answer doesn’t mean he don’t care
Some of God’s greatest gifts, are unanswered prayers
CLOSER
Grand Square
She wasn’t quite the angel, I remembered in my dreams
I could tell that time had changed me in her eyes too it seemed
Tried to talk about the old days there wasn’t much we could recall
I guess the Lord knows what he’s doin’
Allemande Left and Weave The Ring
And as she walked away, I looked at my wife,
Then and there I thanked the good Lord for the gifts in my life
Just because he doesn’t answer doesn’t mean he don’t care
Some of God’s greatest gifts...
TAG
Some of God’s greatest gifts
Are all too often unanswered...
Some of God’s greatest gifts
Are unanswered prayers
