Sara Groves - Esther lyrics

rate me

Verse 1

I have a picture of Esther and David

She is a young bride and he is a soldier

They didn't know then that David was dying

They wouldn't have children

Verse 2

Alone with a life time, Africa called

She went for the first time, it grew in her heart

All of the children, all of those children

Pre-chorus

Now Esther has 2.4 million children

She writes us and asks us to pray for them all

Chorus

She's compelled, she's compelled by what she's seen

And she tells us, she tells us do anything you can

To help, oh please help, there's so much to do

And I'm just Esther

Verse 3

She visits her homeland, she fights with her words

She comes to the courts of the kings of the earth

Who don't understand their inherited power

To answer her question
