Dear God, You sent a child to me to fill my life with joy, And only You knew which was best -- a little girl. Somehow I took for granted, Lord,

That we would have a lifetime, And I made so many future plans For that precious child of mine. Enchanted by that Miracle, Caught up in each new day, I guess I didn't hear You, Lord, When You said, 'This one can't stay.' I trust You, Lord. Thy will; not mine, Yet I can't understand This sudden loss -- the emptiness -- Lord, guide me with your hand. I know my child's an angel now But my heart is aching so. I'm sorry I wasn't ready, Lord, To let my baby go. There wasn't time for one last hug; There was no final kiss. Oh God, it's all those special smiles That I already miss. So Lord, could you do just one thing For me especially? Please hold my angel close to You And say goodbye for me. Amen
