Sasha

Sasha I remember when I held your hand And told you about God, You listened so attentively And never thought it odd I remember when I kissed your head And watched you go to sleep, We prayed that if you didn’t wake The Lord your soul would keep And as you grew I saw your faith Grow right along with you, And you included Jesus In everything you’d do I became your hero With me you knew no shame, Because I followed Jesus And taught you to do the same Every time I talked to you You learned a little more, You grew and took the things you learned As you walked out the door You had your tribulations And your fair share of strife, But Jesus had His hand on you And guided you through life As it goes, we lived our lives And struggled through our days, You chose to follow Jesus I went the other way You got big and I got small As we went through the years, I got weak and you got strong You helped me with my fears I remember you came to the park And took long walks with me, You told me Jesus loved me And He would set me free I remember when you held my hand And watched me fall asleep, And prayed that God would show me My weary soul He’d keep Now you’ve become my hero With you I know no shame, Because you followed Jesus And taught me to do the same
