Poetry
In the still of the night
A mother weeps
For her son is lost
And she cannot sleep
She cries out to God
A desperate plea:
"If You are God,
Give my boy back to me!"
For he was my son,
The hope of my heart,
From his very first breath
Nothing could keep us apart.
Can I give him up?
How can I let go?
He was my son,
And I love him so.
By a sheltered grave
A father weeps
For his son is gone
And forever sleeps
He cries out to God
In his agony:
"He was my son,
Till You took him from me."
For he was my son,
The hope of my heart,
From his very first breath,
Nothing could keep us apart.
Can I give him up?
How can I let go?
He was my son,
And I love him so.
To an empty cross
A Father turns
He gave His son
So we all can learn
Our God does not ask
More than He will give
Christ gave His life
So for Him we now live.
For He is My son
The joy of My heart
From the very beginning
Nothing could keep us apart
But I gave Him up
And I let Him go
He is My son
And I love Him so.
So take my son
The hope of my heart
From this day forward
Nothing will keep you apart
And I give him up
I will let him go
He is my son
But still I know…..
That You are my God
The One that is true
From this day forward
I’m trusting in You
I give You my son
And all that I own
You are my Lord
I serve You alone.
