This one WRECKS me every time it comes on

"The Little Girl"



by John Michael Montgomery





Her parents never took the young girl to church

Never spoke of His name

Never read her His word

Two non-believers walking lost in this world

Took their baby with them

What a sad little girl

Her daddy drank all day and mommy did drugs

Never wanted to play

Or give kisses and hugs

She'd watch the TV and sit there on the couch

While her mom fell asleep

And her daddy went out

And the drinking and the fighting

just got worse every night

Behind their couch she'd be hiding

Oh what a sad little life

And like it always does, the bad just got worse

With every slap and every curse

Until her daddy in a drunk rage one night

Used a gun on her mom and then took his life

And some people from the city took the girl far away

To a new mom and dad

And kisses and hugs everyday

Her first day of Sunday school the teacher walked in

And a small little girl

Stared a picture of Him

She said "I know that man up there on that cross

I don't know His name

But I know He got off

He was there in my old house

and held me close to His side.

As I hid there behind our couch

The night my parents died"

Bullet's trial was a farce. Can I get an AMEN?????


We won't be punished for our sins, but BY them.

When this song first came out, a little girl in the area was missing. Her mother and the boyfriend claimed she was at the mall and just disappeared. Her body was found at the garbage dump. :-1 The mother and boyfriend killed the child. She was severely underweight. At her mother's trial, the judge said how this song reminded him of her. To this day, the song makes me cry.

Faith Hill's " I Would Be Stronger" also does that. As for "Concrete Angel", I wonder if any other singer could put so much heart in it. Martina is one of the best!

I'd never hear this before, just found it and listened to it. It's hard to type with tears in your eyes.

thanks for sharing it BR
