I’ll Be There
Daddy, please don’t look so sad,
Mama, please don’t cry
Cause I am in the arms of Jesus
And He sings me lullabies.
Please, try not to question God
Don’t think He is unkind.
Don’t think he sent me to you
And then he changed his mind.
I am a special child, you see,
And I’m needed up above.
I’m the special gift you gave him,
The product of your love.
I’ll always be there with you
And watch the sky at night.
Find the brightest star that’s gleaming:
That’s my halo’s brilliant light.
You’ll see me in the morning frost
That mists your window pane.
That’s me in the summer showers:
I’ll be dancing in the rain.
When you feel a little breeze,
From a gentle breeze that blows
That’s me – I’ll be there
Planting a kiss on your nose.
When you see a child playing
And your heart feels a little tug,
That’s me – I’ll be there
Giving your heart a hug.
So, Daddy, please don’t look so sad,
Mama, don’t you cry.
I’m in the arms of Jesus
And He sings me lullabies.
From your little angel
