Grandma Wings

Grandma Wings By Lawrence M Nunez Dear Lord I pray, That you give my grandma wings Like the Angels in my dreams That from heaven flies To stand watch at night Over me as I sleep That she too my angel may be Tonight and forever Let them be pretty O lord as the lilies of the fields, white as the morning clouds, Light as the feather of a dove. like the glistening snow and shimmering sea her wings will glow, as she stand watch night and day, every day guarding me as I sleep and play. I could see her now O Lord the big old smile The kind and loving words The twinkle in her eyes Wings outstretch whispering I love you darling, It will be okay For now I have my wings To stand guard tonight as you sleep Grandma I miss you so I remember the talks And the laughs Even the tears we shed Both you and me Mine out loud without a care Yours in secret because you care Thank you Lord for giving her wings To stand guard tonight as I sleep Lord I pray you give her rest Peace and joy untold No more sorrow no more pain but beautiful wings that she may from heaven fly to stand watch over me tonight as I cry myself to sleep bidding her good-bye with a heavy heart I say good bye grandma good bye
