Lyrics History - Judy Bailey
Before
the
world
began
or
my
parents
had
a
clue
I
twinkled
in
Your
eye
Then
reached
my
mother's
womb
You
put
me
there
brought
me
to
being
There
You
knew
and
shaped
me
The
day
of
my
birth
I
didn't
know
a
thing
But
Your
hand
was
on
me
Long
time,
long
time,
You
watched
over
me
Long
time,
long
time,
we've
got
history
All
through
my
infancy
Right
through
the
childhood
years
All
through
my
growing
pains
And
through
the
teenage
tears
In
every
step
along
the
way
I
had
Your
protection
In
every
age
up
'til
today,
You've
been
ever
present
Long
time,
long
time
.
When
I
was
1,
when
I
was
2
When
I
was
3,
4,
5,
6,
7 years
old
8,
9,
when
I
was
10
When
I
was
11,
12,
13,
14
years
old
From
1,
when
I
was
2
When
I
was
3,
4,
5,
6,
7 years
old
8,
9,
when
I
was
10
When
I
was
11,
12,
13,
14
years
old
On
and
on
and
on
through
the
years
Constantly,
constantly
I'm
not
as
grateful
as
I
should
be
Constantly,
constantly
The
fact
that
I'm
here
is
testimony
Constantly,
constantly
Of
how
You
have
been
faithful
to
me
And
I
know
You're
gonna
stay
Right
by
my
side
now
and
always
