I'LL HOLD YOU IN HEAVEN
From the very beginning we loved you,
As we made plans to hold you and rock you;
You were tiny and helpless as you lay in my womb
But something went wrong and soon you were gone;
Our young hearts were broken; our tears fell like rain,
We'd never known such heartache and pain.
We wonder whom you looked like, your dad or me.
Do you have my smile and his eyes?
Would you have been big and tall or tiny and small?
We had dreams for you that reached to the skies.
It was a short time ago and we miss you so very much
So, thanks to Jesus, we'll see you in heaven.
We'll hold you in heaven someday,
When our trials on Earth pass away;
The angels have rocked you,
The Father watches over you,
I know that you're waiting for us;
We held you for a while, your dad and I,
Only to tell you . . . we love you and goodbye,
But we'll hold you in heaven someday.
