AngelThe Mention of Her Name
 

The mention of my child's name
May bring tears to my eyes, 
But it never fails to bring 
Music to my ears.
If you really are my friend, 
Let me hear the beautiful music of her name. 
It soothes my broken heart, 
and sings to my soul.

If tears could build a stairway, 
and memories were a lane, 
I would walk right up to Heaven 
to bring you home again. 
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say good-bye. 
You were gone before I knew it,
and only God knows why.
My heart still aches with sadness,
and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you,
no one will ever know.

If I could have a lifetime wish 
A dream that would come true, 
I'd pray to God with all my heart for yesterday, and you.
A thousand words can't bring you back, 
I know because I have tried. 
And neither will a million tears,
I know because I have cried. 
You left behind my broken heart
and happy memories too. 
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.

God's Garden
 

God looked around His garden
and saw an empty space. 
He looked down from Heaven 
and saw your smiling face.

He put His arms around you 
and whispered come to rest.
His garden must be beautiful,
He only picks the very best.

It broke our hearts to lose you, 
a million times we cried, 
And if our loved could have saved you, 
You never would have died.

Do Not Stand At My Grave

Do not stand at my grave and weep, 
I am not there, I do not sleep,
I am the thousand winds that blow, 
I am the diamond glint on snow. 

I am the sunlight on ripened grain, 
I am the gentle Autumn rain.
I am the shining star at night,
When you awake to the morning light.

My time has come, I am at rest, 
I am the sunset in the west, 
I am the clouds that race above,
Where I watch over those I love. 

Do not stand at my grave and cry, 
I am not there, I did not die. 
So, here the words that here I say,
I am the love that guides your way.

Little Angels

When God calls little children
to dwell with Him above,
we mortals sometimes question
the wisdom of His love.

For no heartache can compare 
with the death of one small child 
who does so much to make our world,
seem wonderful and mild. 

Perhaps God tires of calling, 
the age to his fold, 
so he picks a rosebud, 
before we can grow old. 

God knows how much we need them,
and so He takes but few, 
to make the land of Heaven
more beautiful to view. 

Believing this is difficult, 
still somehow we must try,
the saddest word that mankind knows
will always be "Goodbye."

So when a little one departs,
we are who left behind,
must realize God loves children,
Angels are hard to find.
