Story Behind the Song
Lyrics
Stefanie & Suzanna (left), Judith and Suzanna (right)
The inspiration for “Suzanna’s Song” if based on
a true event.  Suzanna is the daughter of Steve
and Stefanie Coburn Fuller.  Stefanie is featured
on “Our Song.”  You could say Suzanna is the
reason Stefanie and I are sisters in ministry and
life for that matter.  When Stefanie was expecting,
her water broke too early.  The Lord compelled
me to go and visit her while she was in the
hospital.  I didn't know Stefanie yet. I even
wondered how God needed me to visit because
Stefanie was already surrounded with family and
friends.  But as I say “God had a plan.”  I was
obedient and my life will never be the same.  The
Lord blessed me with a wonderful friend.

Forty days later Suzanna was born.  Yes, she was
premature, tiny, and fragile but she was healthy
and God was faithful!   I know it’s not my story but
as a tribute to a God that “Still Makes a Way” and
to other parents that have had rough times
“Suzanna’s Song” was born.  God still performs
miracles and He is truly with us every step of the
way.
(Verse 1)
Lying here, wondering will,
I ever see you smile.
Will you make it just one more day?
Jesus please be with this child.

Will you laugh?
Will you play?
Will you last just one more day?
Lord please be near us in this hour,
As I lie, alone and wait.

(Chorus)
Oh Suzanna, please be strong with me.
I praise the Lord with all my soul,
Keep me near my God to thee.

(Verse 2)
There’s a hope inside -
Of me each day,
As I wake once more to wait.
Lord, I can’t help but to be so scared,
What decisions must I make?

Will she hear?
Can she cry?
Lord please just give us more time.
And I wonder more yet wonder still,
As forty days go by.

(Bridge)
And then I saw you -
For the first time Suzanna!
I will shout out Hallelujahs!
Glory forever!

Yes! Lord you are so real to me!
How great you are,
Keeping us,
In our time of need!

(Final Chorus)
Oh Suzanna, I’m so glad for thee.
I Praise the Lord with all my heart!
I can bounce you on my knee.

(End Tag)
Yes, I praise the Lord with all my soul.
My God!  How great - You
How great You are!
