At a time when life was a little sad
Because we lost someone we never really had
We moved into your neighborhood
Right beside where your house stood
You took the time to welcome us home
And let us know we don’t have to be alone
You greeted us with a smile and a chat
While on our new steps you humbly sat
You brought us chicken with all the fixin’s
You volunteered your time and help
And oh how welcome we instantly felt
You made a connection with our family
God chose our neighbors it’s plain to see
You watched our Sophie with such tender care
She will never forget her time in your chair
You talked with Whitney like she was your own
You make us all feel right at home
God knows what we need all the time
His plan is so complex it blows my mind
We may never understand all of his ways
But he always deserves the highest praise
I am so thankful to him
He knows what we need
He is the best planner indeed
He cares so much for us
That he works out every detail
Even when we think we have failed
We are so blessed by all his favors
and so very thankful he hand picks our neighbors
