We’ll Have Chick-Fil-A

We’ll Have Chick-Fil-A
(Jacob McGowen)

1st Verse:
Never should have made it past my teens
Everyone thought that I would be
Forever ever captive to my mind
Would work and study late at night
And in the morning pout and cry
When I couldn’t get the grades that I desired
But someone stood in the gap for me
See my momma prayed always for me
And when I longed to see the weekend
Always late on Thursday nights
She smiled as she told me
To tomorrow fight and try

Chorus:
For we’ll have Chick-Fil-A tomorrow night
Because you did your best this week
And you survived
Yes, we’ll have Chick-Fil-A tomorrow night
Because you did your best this week
And you survived

REPEAT 2X

2nd Verse
For, some life comes easy
And they don’t understand
How much others try to
Do all the things they can
To work and strive so hard
For so little gain
When some abound in joy
The rest reside in pain
But it helps when you
Fight on in faith
With a family to love you
Come what may
With incentives and rewards
To keep your eyes on the prize
Such things, they helped me back then
And they can help me in these times

2nd Chorus:
Like having Chick-Fil-A to end Friday
Like a cup of weekend coffee
To revive my tired brain
Like a movie on the big screen
To ignite my hope and stir my dreams

REPEAT 2X

Bridge:
It’s in Christ alone
I can stand strong and say
He’ll give me strength
To do His will always!

3rd Chorus:
He’ll get me up on Mondays
Introduce me to new people
When I don’t know what to say
Give me a purpose and a plan
And when I’ve done all
Help me to stand!
