My Son In Heaven
"Mommy"
October 2002
Lord hold me tight and guide my way
give me the strength to face each day
my only son now dwells with you
but life goes on i must get through
my son would not want me to grieve
he knew that it was time to leave
he fought the good fight he won the race
and finally hes in a better place
though i am feeling such despair
i know with you hes in good care
i miss him so and hes barley gone
but i know hes there beside your throne
you were his savior and dearest friend
to you he was faithful until the end
he touched so many lives down here
but hes with you and has no fear
i know you gave him a special role
the day that he crossed your threshold
he may be greeting those entering your gates
or tending your heavenly garden estates
whatever you've assigned him to do
i promise he'll do a good job for you
he made us proud though he did not get a chance at life
for i am his parent, proud as the colors red, blue and white
i know you understood my loss
for your only son died on a cross
he paid the price so we could be free
and all that beleieved would dwell with thee
farewell, my son, at last you're there
encircled by gods love and care
one day ill see your face once more
when you meet me there at heavens door.
