He Came Down From Heaven Just To Take You Home
"HE CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN TO TAKE YOU HOME"
Kneeling at your bedside, I held your hand and wept...
I cried for you to stay.....and as I stroked your hair,
I begged HIM to take me... and to leave you here....
your life a new beginning, and my life already spent.
I saw your pain, the suffering and fear, and I asked HIM why..
Time stood still... and in a moment in time....I heard the angels sing.
and I felt HIM there beside you, .... you were not alone.
"HE CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN TO TAKE YOU HOME"
Your pain and fear became an ember, no more for you to bear, and
as you turned to me and smiled, there was peace and comfort there.
You saw HIS face and your tears were tears of joy...
your tiny hand slipped from mine, and I held you tight...
you closed your eyes and whispered on the wings of an angel...
"Daddy, don't cry... I saw Jesus......
"HE CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN JUST TO TAKE ME HOME"
