God has given to you wings
Butterfly wings of grace
Soar up into the radiant sky
And find God's loving embrace
Fly away and be at peace
Far from hurt and pain
Reach up, up to the heavens
Beneath His mercy rain
Remember He keeps His promises
He always keeps His word
Every cry and every prayer
Close to His heart is heard
Whenever you feel overwhelmed
Know this; He's already there
Fly up into His loving arms
Your sorrows He will bear
Fly away golden butterfly
Up to the rainbow sky
In His presence, near His heart
He holds the tears you cry.

I love this poem and the imagery of the butterfly! I've always called my daughter my "little butterfly" so I think of her when reading this...and just how much God cares for her.
