Hold Mommy's Hand

HOLD MOMMY'S HAND
BY BRIAN F.M. BARLOW

I asked a favor of my Father
I whispered in His ear
Hold the hand of my mother
To let her know You are near
Mommy we hold the same hands
Though I’m with Jesus and see
You are there where I did stand
His touch heals you and me
You and I will be together
I know Mommy it must seem long
But He promises life forever
and Jesus cannot be wrong
We did not know 
The sum of our days
His mercy clearly chose to show
That only He is the Way
So take His hand and let it be
As if you can feel mine and see
That I’m in good care part of a perfect song
Hug Daddy too and tell him it won’t be long
So during the time we are apart
Keep Jesus close to your heart
You need only to call His name
He’ll live in your heart and you’ll never be the same
