Story Behind The Song
I have a heart for those who have been injured in the line of duty. They need the hope that is expressed in the chorus, and to know we are behimd them in every way.
Song Description
A soldier has lost a leg in Iraq. He almost wishes he'd died. But an "angels voice" (see new lyrics) encourages him that God will work his sacrifice for the good. He ends up walking back home in rehab, and the same nurse writes to say she is coming to visit him and encourage him with her song

Lyrics
Of all who gave of life and limb
He never thought it would be him
He gave his life and he survived
But deep inside he wished he?d died
When he woke up he heard the sound
Of rain as it came pourin? down
As he reached where his leg had been
A pretty nurse began to sing (better lyric would be ?An angel?s voice began to sing?)
?Remember that no matter what the weather
Everything with God will work together
For the good, beyond the could,
Not just a should, or wish it would
Yes, everything with God will work together
Yes, everything with God will work together
For the good?
In rehab, he never struggled more
There were fights, but this was war
Just when he wanted to give in
Those words came back and sang to him
?Remember that no matter what the weather
Everything with God will work together
For the good, beyond the could,
Not just a should, or wish it would
Yes, everything with God will work together
Yes, everything with God will work together
For the good?
A letter came the very day he finally walked
From that nurse he hadn?t seen for so long
She said ?you?re a hero for your service to your country
And I?m coming just to sing this song?,
?Remember that no matter what the weather
Everything with God will work together
For the good, beyond the could,
Not just a should, or wish it would
Yes, everything with God will work together
Yes, everything with God will work together
Yes, everything with God will work together
For the good?
