Hi JoAnn,
You have nothing to be forgiven for, we've all been there. Speaking of that, is this the song you're looking for? (Sorry about the little pun, I couldn't resist)
Keith.

VERSE 1:
IN A ROOM WITHOUT A VIEW,
A NEW MOTHER SMILES AND HOLDS
THE TINY FINGERS OF HER BRAND NEW BABY GIRL.
HER HUSBAND TAKES HER BY THE HAND,
SO UNSURE ABOUT THE FUTURE
AND NO MONEY CAN THEY MAKE IT IN THIS WORLD?
AND THEY PRAY,
LORD ALL WE HAVE TO GIVE IS LOVE
AND THEY HEARD A GENTLE VOICE
LIKE AN ECHO FROM ABOVE,

CHORUS:
I HAVE BEEN THERE.
I KNOW WHAT FEAR (PAIN) IS ALL ABOUT.
YES, I HAVE BEEN THERE,
AND I'M STANDING WITH YOU NOW.
I HAVE BEEN THERE
AND I CAME TO BUILD A BRIDGE
OH, SO THIS ROAD COULD LEAD YOU HOME.
OH, I HAVE BEEN THERE.

VERSE 2:
HE'S BEEN A PASTOR TWENTY YEARS
BUT TONIGHT HE SITS ALONE
AND BROKEN HEARTED IN THE CORNER OF THE CHURCH
HE TRIED TO CHANGE A FALLEN WORLD
WITH HIS WORDS AND WITH HIS WISDOM
BUT IT SEEMS LIKE IT IS ONLY GETTING WORSE
AND HE CRIES,
OH LORD I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND.
THEN HE FELT THE HAND OF GRACE,
AND HE HEARD A VOICE THAT SAID (CHORUS)

VERSE 3:
AN OLDER MAN UP ON A HILL
HOLDING FLOWERS BUT HE CAN'T HOLD BACK THE TEARS.
OH, HE HAS COME TO SAY GOODBYE.
HE THINKS ABOUT THE LIFE SHE LIVED,
THINKS ABOUT HOW HARD IT'S BEEN TO LIVE WITHOUT HER
SIXTY YEARS RIGHT BY HIS SIDE.
AND HE CRIES,
OH, LORD I LOVED HER TILL THE END
AND HE HEARD A GENTLE VOICE
SAY YOU'LL SEE HER ONCE AGAIN

CHORUS:
I HAVE BEEN THERE.
I KNOW WHAT SORROW'S ALL ABOUT
YES, I HAVE BEEN THERE
AND I'M STANDING WITH YOU NOW
I HAVE BEEN THERE,
AND I CAME TO BUILD A BRIDGE
OH, SO THIS ROAD COULD LEAD HER HOME,
THE ROAD COULD LEAD HER HOME
OH I HAVE BEEN THERE,
YOU KNOW I OVERCAME THE CROSS,
YES, I HAVE BEEN THERE
O HER LIFE WOULD NOT BE LOST
OH I HAVE BEEN THERE,
AND I CAME TO BUILD A BRIDGE
SO THIS ROAD COULD LEAD YOU HOME
THE ROAD COULD LEAD YOU HOME
OH, I HAVE BEEN THERE
YES, I HAVE BEEN THERE
