So helpless when their born,
Only our love to rely on.
Given from up above,
To love until their gone.
Not given out of anger,
But only out of love.
For us to teach the lessons,
That can’t be taught from up above.
Lent for a short time,
With only us to guide.
No day taken for granted,
No time for us to bide.
Deep sorrow will become our lives,
When he’s asked to go.
I have no choice in the answer,
But wish I could say no.
But I will do as I’m asked,
I will grieve everyday for you.
And realize in my heart,
One day I will be with you too.
