Baby Boy

Baby boy
   I know you're in a better place,
  Along with God's saving grace.
   I knew you only for a while,
  And so many times you made me smile.

    Wish me God's blessings,
    Down here on earth.
And know that I tried to watch over you,
    Even before your birth.

  God had a reason,
 That he took you away.
He loves you more, 
But I'll see you someday

I wish I knew, 
What was best for you and I.
And I can not promise, 
That I won't cry.

I'll always keep you,
Deep down in my heart.
Because you were my,
Baby boy from the start.

Although you didn't,
Shine down here on earth.
You're shining in heaven,
In God's perfect garden.
