Little one

Oh little one, we felt such hope
To know that you were on your way
And then, the devastating news
that with us you could not stay.

We lost so much, our plans all gone
Our wishes, hopes and dreams
of holding hands and playing games.
The future bleak - it seems

Oh little one, we miss you dear
We wish that you were here
But now you have your angel wings
and you are busy with heavenly things

For now, there is an empty place
That will not fill till we embrace.
And questions without answers clear
Until we glimpse your face so dear.

We love you babe, please wait close by,
our angel child for now
Until we meet at heaven's door
With all God's promises sure.

We know there is a joyous plan.
A future eternal and divine
But though you're safe in heaven's arms.
 I wanted you in mine.
