Jesus You Know His Heart

Once soft meadows so full of life, now hold shadows, blocking the light. Words unheard, and dreams untouched, once your eyes laughed so much. Distant sounds, still call your name, within a body silenced by the game. Love can't touch, and tears can't clean, that part we know as self esteem. Yesterdays of you, bring me joy, recalling back when you were a boy. Shiny blonde hair, and smiling blue eyes, my heart forever hypnotized. As tomorrow comes, and life goes on, somewhere happiness must belong. My prayer for you I humbly ask, may light surround you within God's grasp. A blessing for me, when you were born, but somehow evil has sent this storm. Jesus You know him, but he has lost his way, hold him tight, don't let him stray. Bring him safely to me once more, as the waves get higher on unknown shores. Lost is lonely, and screaming for help, but I can't save him all by myself. I give him to You, as I sit and cry, a mother in pain, I cannot lie. Your mother watched, as you died on a cross, a mother in pain, for her son she had lost. You gave her comfort, You called her name, now I give You mine, my heart feels the same. Bring him safely back into the flock, as You guide a lost vessel from hidden rocks. Let him know joy, let him feel rain, as Your Love gently brings, my son home again.
