1st verse
The service had started and they were singing that first hymn,
He prayed no one will notice as he slipped on in
Cause in a yard sale suit coat, and Salvation Army shoes, no one wants to shake your hand or speak a word to you

Pre- Chorus
But hever even had to leave his seat, for God to hear his heart cry out and know just what he needs

Chorus
No one saw the struggle, turned their back to all the hurt
Blind to God’s healing power
But you know sometimes
He does His best work In the last pew at the back of the church

2nd verse
It took a lot of courage to show up the way she did, she knows how people talk in a little town like this
It’s hard to raise a baby when your just a child yourself
A runaway who thought that love is what you buy and sell

Pre- Chorus
Sittin’in that empty row right there, she’s living proof God still hears a mom and daddy’s prayers

Chorus
No one saw the struggle, turned their back to all the hurt
Blind to God’s healing power
But you know sometimes He does His best work, in the last pew at the back of the church

Last Chorus
There is a seat for those who struggle, there is hope for those who hurt
He’s waiting with His healing power
Sometimes God does His best work, in the last pew in the back in the church
