(Opener): SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE

Just the other night, at a hometown football game, My wife and I ran into, my old high school flame
And as I introduced them, the past came back to me, I couldn’t help but think of –

She was the one, that I’d wanted for all times, Each night I’d spend prayin’, that God would make her mine
And if he’d only grant me, this wish I wished back then, I’d never ask for anything -

She wasn’t quite the angel, I remembered in my dreams, I could tell that time had changed me, in her eyes too it seemed
Tried to talk about the old days, there wasn’t much we could recall I guess the Lord knows what he’s doin’

– do an ALLEMANDE LEFT and WEAVE
Sometimes I thank God, for unanswered prayers

And as she walked away, I looked at my wife, (Then and there I thanked the good Lord, for the gifts in my life)

 – SWING your lady round and PROMENADE her back home
Just because he doesn’t answer doesn’t mean he don’t care Some of God’s greatest gifts, are unanswered prayers

(Tag): SWING your baby -

Some of God’s greatest gifts  -   …are all too often unanswered...
Some of God’s greatest gifts  -   …are unanswered prayers

 (Figure): HEADS SQUARE THRU Four hands round and go - Find the corner lady and you do a DO SA DO

SWING THRU and now let the BOYS RUN right BEND THE LINE and do the RIGHT AND LEFT THRU

FLUTTERWHEEL all along, SLIDE THRU and then - SWING the Corner girl and PROMENADE her again

Just because he doesn’t answer doesn’t mean he don’t care Some of God’s greatest gifts, are unanswered prayers
