In Heaven You Wait

I feel a stirring in my soul to adopt internationally.  Somewhere in China there is a 
woman that will give up her daughter for a better life.  This is something I wrote 
for that child to be.

In Heaven You Wait

Before you are mine you are God's precious child.  He holds you in His heart until 
the day when I will hold you next to mine.  

Before I ever utter a lullaby to calm your fears a thousand angels have composed 
the most beautiful music just for you. 

Listen carefully and take comfort precious child you are loved.  Until we are a 
forever family in heaven you wait.
