When You Lose A Child ~ Southbreeze ~ Living Each Day

There is a place within our hearts,
That none it's place can take.
It belongs to someone very dear,
For whom our heart does ache.

We've had many days in our lives that,
We didn't think we'd make it through.
Our hearts hurt oh so much and,
We dread the days anew.

We pray for the sorrow to disappear,
For the pain to go away.
Our angel we want within our arms,
And thoughts of yesterday.

I know it's hard to understand,
Why things happen as they do.
Sorrow may even cause us to doubt,
God's plan for me and you.

Even so our Father is there,
Our cries He does hear.
He knows how bad we're hurting,
And wants to draw us near.

Oh precious friend Jesus loves us!
And loves our angel too.
One day we'll understand it all,
Will see all things brand new.

Remember God uses godly friends,
To remind us of His love.
So listen and be watchful,
For His message from above.

One day a smile will surely come,
And tears will fade away.
Beautiful memories we will recall,
As God promises each day.

Oh Yes! "Jesus loves me, this I know;
For the Bible tells me so!
Little ones to Him belong,
They are weak but He is strong!"
