Irene Lyrics – Toby Mac<\/h4>\n

Hush little baby baby don’t you cry
\nDaddy’s gonna sing you a lullaby
\nEverything’s gonna be alright
\nThe Lord’s gonna answer your prayer tonight
\nHush little baby don’t you cry
\nDaddy’s gonna sing you a lullaby
\nEverything’s gonna be alright
\nThe Lord’s gonna answer your prayer<\/p>\n

Last night I had a dream you was the homecoming queen
\nToday you’re 18, happy birthday Irene
\nQuit school you had to drop out to raise your little child
\nDoesn’t seem to be anyone around
\nYou got to reach up to touch rock bottom
\nThe powers that be keep you downtrodden
\nDaughter of Zion, I heard your prayer
\nJust cast your cares and please beware of snakes
\nThey come in all shapes and sizes
\nTempt you, put scales on your eyelids
\nDon’t waste your sorrows
\nThey’ll give you strength … tomorrow
\nYour Calvary’s about to come so
\nKeep your head up, don’t you ever let up
\nThis storm will pass you be ready for the next one<\/p>\n

Hey little girl with the pressures of the world on your shoulders
\nDon’t say that it’s over
\nI heard your prayers, just cast your cares
\nAnd I’ll be there so don’t you fear<\/p>\n

[CHORUS]<\/p>\n

Irene I carried you when you was too weak to walk
\nI took to you when you gave your heart to God
\nFaithful and true, that’s what I’ll always be to you
\nBelieve in you, believe in Me and these mountains have to move
\nYou have dreams and aspirations
\nI knew you before creation
\nYour foundation’s solid
\nI will give you a palace, restore your soul
\nYou’ll be up for any challenge
\nMany storms are on the way better sharpen your faith
\nCount the cost, take up your cross
\nAnd wear it every day
\nRest in Me and I will give you strength
\nBlessed is she, Irene who seeks my face<\/p>\n

[CHORUS]<\/p>\n

Father I’m stronger than when I first believed<\/p>\n
