Music Playing :It Is Well, With My Soul
In Loving Memory Of Danny
9/30/1968- 2/3/2001
COME STRAIGHT HOME
MY MEMORIES OF YOU START WITH
MY HEART BEING FILLED WITH JOY
WHEN A SMILING DOCTOR SAID TO ME
YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE A BOY
THE DAY ARRIVED WHEN YOU WERE BORN
THE WHOLE FAMILY CAME TO SEE
WITH JOY AND LAUGHTER THEY ALL PROCLAIMED
"I THINK HE LOOKS LIKE ME!!!!!"
I COULDN'T WAIT TO ROCK YOU
I HELD YOU CLOSE TO ME
GOD HAD GIVEN ME A SON
TO BOUNCE UPON MY KNEE
IT SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY
I HELD YOU IN MY ARMS
BUT LITTLE BOYS GROW TOO SOON
AND THERE WERE SOME ALARMS.
TIME FLASHED BY AND OH NO YOU
WERE DRIVING YOUR OWN CAR
I WOULD PRAY "DEAR LORD, SEND HIM
HOME WITHOUT A SCAR
GOD ALWAYS KEPT YOU SAFE AND WHEN
SOMETIMES YOU WOULD ROAM
GOD HEARD A MOTHERS' PRAYER
TO BRING YOU SAFE STRAIGHT HOME
A PHONE CALL BROKE THE NEWS
TO ME THAT ON THAT FATEFUL DAY
ONE MORE TIME OUR DEAR LORD
DID NOT ASK ME TO WAIT
BUT LET ME KNOW YOU'RE WITH HIM
HE TOOK YOU HOME RIGHT STRAIGHT
I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO ENTER PEARLY GATES
BUT HOPE THAT YOUR FIRST QUESTION
WAS "LORD, HOW LONG DOES MOM HAVE TO WAIT.
IT DOESN'T MATTER ABOUT TIME DEAR SON
I HAVE A MISSION CLEAR
TO REACH OUT TO THE LOST
AND HURTING PRECIOUS ONES DOWN HERE.
DON'T WORRY SON, I'LL BE THERE
I'M SURE THE LORD HAS LET YOU KNOW
THAT DAILY HE IS WITH ME
EVERYWHERE I GO
WHAT A GLORIOUS BLESSING
WHEN TIME IS UP AND HERE
WE'LL NO LONGER ROAM
I'LL JUST BE LISTENING FOR OUR SAVIOUR
VOICE, SAYING "IT'S TIME TO COME STRAIGHT HOME.
