Lyrics - Alzheimers

WHILE SHE HAD HER MIND
Words & Music by Sara Beth Geoghegan

Confined to a wheelchair
My grandmother wheels around
She's lost in her own house
She lives deep in confusion
She cannot recall the time when she was mother of five
And like a baby she cries
And reaches for my hand
She just wants to understand

Is there a reason why disease stole grandma's mind
Will she meet Jesus Christ before she dies?
Cause she didn't know him when she had her mind
She didn't know him when she had her mind

He asks her what's the matter
My grandfather plays the game
Acts like it's all the same
And as he pulls on her sweater
He thinks how can it be?
She's lost her identity
And like a child she cries
And reaches for his hand
She just wants to understand

Is there a reason why disease stole grandma's mind
Will she meet Jesus Christ before she dies?
Cause she didn't know him when she had her mind
She didn't know him when she had her mind

Oh sovereign God
Would you open up her mind for just a time
And let her meet you
And give her one more chance to change her mind
Oh give her one more chance to change her mind
Give her one more chance to change her mind
