Lyrics
Verse One
I was bored at a work convention
'Til the speaker caught my attention
With what he did in his spare time
Visiting sick children
With terminal conditions
I decided to give it a try
Met this great kid, and formed a bond instantly
Y'know kids say the darndest things
And this one really got to me
He said:
Chorus
I'll tell God you said hi
And though you said you don't pray much
You're really a good guy
He'll understand why you been out of touch
And if you've been meaning to write
And want to believe with all your might
He can make everything all right
I'll tell God you said hi
Verse Two
He spoke of dying
Heaven, angel wings, and flying
Said he'd be living in the sky
I wasn't sure what to say
I'd kinda lost my way
And hadn't talked to God in a while
He smiled and said that's okay he can see
You had other stuff to do
But now you're spending time with me
And
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
Then one morning they said he wouldn't make it through the day
In his room I cried and softly touched his head
His hands pressed together in his final prayer
Held a note that read
Chorus and tag
