Dear Lord, hear my prayer, for my
heart is aching tonight-
My little girl has left us, and
she's walking toward your light.
I know her heart is frightened, Lord,
So please, hold her hand-
Send an angel to guide her through,
And help her understand.
She likes a little light on, Lord,
when she lays down to sleep-
And maybe a little teddy bear, Lord,
that she can love and keep.
May your light from Heaven, Lord,
encircle her in love-
And wrap her up in peace and joy,
that comes from up above.
Oh, how I'm going to miss her, Lord,
This little girl so sweet-
She talked often, of her Jesus, and
how they would one day meet.
It came too soon for me, dear Lord,
It's so hard to let her go-
I am so lost without her, Lord, but
she's with you I know!
Take care of your newest angel, Lord,
I place her in your care-
Her little life was sad, dear Lord, but
I know she's happy there!
My tears are flowing--my heart aches--
Please oh Lord, help me-
To understand why she had to go, Oh
Lord, just let me see!
Comfort us here on earth, dear Lord,
we carry on day by day-
For Lord , we will miss her, much more
than words can say!
I thank you for the five years Lord,
that you gave her to me-
The happy times we had with her-- such
a precious memory!
In sickness, Lord, she left this world,
but she will not suffer anymore-
For Lord, I know you healed her, the
moment she reached Heaven's door!
