Letter To Heaven Lyrics

An old man was sitting at his table one day

Writing a letter to pass time away

His little granddaughter climbed up on his knee

Saying won't you please write a letter for me.

Oh what must I say in this letter I pray

Tell mommy I miss her since she went away

I coming to see her real soon I hope

He choked back a big lump that rose in his throat.

He sealed it and wrote on that big envelope

To God up in heaven you'll get it I hope

He stamped it and handed it to her to mail

Her big eyes were shining her little face pale.

She was crossing the street to the box o'er the way

And when she stepped out never looked either way

A big auto hit her and sped away fast

The little girls prayers had been answered at last.

The postman was passing and picked up the note

Addressed to the Master and these words he spoke

Straight up into heaven this letter did go

She's happy up there with her mommy I know...
