My son was just eleven
When he was on his way to heaven
Doctors of this earth failed to see
That God was in control of me
They said I wasn't listening
That I should heed what they were saying
Through it all the one thing I know
Was Jesus said it wasn't time for him to go
It didn't matter how smart they were
God is in control kind sirs
And I appreciate all that you have done
But my God can still overcome
My son made it through the week
All the doctors came to seek
The reason that I didn't fall apart
While they were breaking this mother's heart
I had a peace they did not know
I knew in death where he would go
But God overruled like no other
And helped to grow the faith of this mother
It didn't matter how smart they were
God is in control kind sirs
And I appreciate all that you have done
But my God can still overcome
Though he did not die
This was so hard I will not lie
To the world this single trial could show
The depths at which our faith can grow
God had healed my son
And showed the doctors who would come
How he turned the pow'r of death to life
All glory be unto the Lord most high
It didn't matter how smart they were
God was in control kind sirs
He overruled like no other
And helped to grow the faith of this mother
For my God can still overcome
