A day or so after his birth I wrote a song and recorded it for my sister. It was played at his graveside service. I've held off sharing it, but a year later I feel comfortable doing so.
Elijah's Song
Sweet little baby wrapped in my arms
No bigger than Daddy's hand
Quietly entered this beautiful world
I'm trying to understand
Silent and helpless I hold you near
as you take your place in my heart
This sweet little angel given to me
Angel of Innocence
I wish I could hold you until my last breath
but Jesus will while I can't
One day he'll hand you back over to me
and we'll be together again
Until that day He'll keep you safe
while Angels sing you lullabies
My sweet little angel given to me
Angel of Innocence
We miss you little Elijah.
