My Spirit Child

He was once here with me
To love and laugh and play,
His smile so bright and happy
It could light the darkest day.

But now I have his spirit
And as I go through my life,
He will help and comfor me
In this world so filled with strife.

When my days are filled with fear and doubt
He helps me stay the course,
I will have no cause for fear
His spirit is my greatest resource.

He steadies me when I stumble
And helps with what I don't know,
By little whispers within my mind
He shows me the way to go.

What I would do without him
Is something I may never find,
The need to learn as I go on
Because my spirit child is ever so kind.

When others doubt what I say
I tell them it is important to believe,
A spirit child is forever with you
Sure are the signs you will receive.

My spirit child and I are one
Cares he helps me to release,
I know one day we'll be together again
When to God I am called to rest in peace.
