Homeward Bound Lyrics Contest Submission

I am newborn, eyes just opened... Can you tell me where I am? I am so cold, I am trembling... Can you warm me with your hand? Will you love me? Love forever? Will you tend to me so I can grow? I am tender, I need someone... If you can love me let me know. Hallelieu... hallelujah hallelu-jah to my soul's song. Hallelieu... I am about to go. So, please don't forget my song. I'm in motion, room is spinning... Mommy's dying, I cry, "Don't go!" I am so scared, please don't leave me... I just got here, just come unwound. Tell me, Jesus can I come too if my mother's homeward bound? I am begging, I am praying... If you take her, take me too. Hallelieu... hallelujah hallelu-jah it's my soul's song. Hallelieu... So, please don't forget my song. I just need to be with her. I am homeward, I am homeward thank you Jesus, I am with her. So thankful we're together, thankful, I'm with her. Hallelieu... hallelujah hallelu-jah it's my soul's song. Hallelieu... So, please don't forget my song. I just need to be with her. I just need to be with her.... Contest Sponsored by: craig cornish

Such a sad song...an extreme sad song...to loose mother and child together..But the bond remains after death so it seems ..that is hopeful. Original as ever R. - C.C
