Intro

The song playing right now is called "You're My Little Girl". It has touched many lives over the years. The reason is just the fact that most everyone can relate to it. If you've ever felt alone or hurt, then this song has something to say to you.

History

Jamie Statema wrote the song for his wife. One night while they were still dating, she told him what it was like for her when her parents got divorced. She was a senior in high school, and when her family fell apart, she was having a hard time understanding why God would make her go through something as horrible as that. That made Jamie think about how God must have felt about the situation. Jamie wanted the song to remind her that God felt just as hurt by the breakup of her family as she did. He didn't want that to happen to her family, but people are going to make their own choices. Jamie wanted to remind her, and others going through similar situations, that no matter what she was going through, God was right there with her the whole time.

Lyrics

The ones you love, they let you down
and I want you to know that I'm sorry
The choices that they made were wrong,
you were caught in the middle
and I'm sorry
So when the anger and the pain
get the best of you
I know it seems like you're all alone
But I am feeling it too

Cause you're my little girl
you're the one that I created
And no one in this world could ever be like you
When you're crying in the night,
all you need to do is call me
I'll be there for you
Cause you're my little girl.............

When you're looking in the mirror
I hope you like what you see
Because no matter what you're feeling
You're perfect to me
Because I see you as a child,
blameless in my sight
Just spend some time with me
and I'll make everything all right

Cause you're my little girl
you're the one that I created
No one in this world could ever be like you
When you're crying in the night,
all you need to do is call me
I'll be there for you
Cause you're my little girl.............

I know you don't deserve what you've been through
I know it doesn't seem fair
I know that there are times you think you're alone
But you've got to know that I will be there, be there

Cause you're my little girl
You're the one that I created,
And no one in this world could ever be like you
When you're crying in the night,
All you need to do is call me
I'll be there for you
Cause you're my little girl.............

You're my little girl
And you're the one that I created
And no one in this world could ever be like you
When you're crying in the night,
all you need to do is call me
I'll be there for you

Cause you're my little girl
you're the one that I created
And no one in this world could ever be like you
