Lord, hold my heart tonight
My precious boy took flight
Empty chair at the table, his laughter still echoes here
Photographs and memories, they can't stop these tears
I raised him in Your love, I taught him how to pray
Now he's in Your arms, Lord, but the pain won't go away
Every mother's nightmare, the call that breaks your soul
How do I keep breathing when I've lost my heart, my whole?
My son, my angel, now you're dancing with the King
Though my arms are empty, I hear heaven's angels sing
One day I'll hold you, in that place beyond the sky
Until then, sweet baby, Mama's gonna try
To find strength in Jesus, to believe You have a plan
My son, my angel, in the Father's hands
Hallelujah, praise Him
Some days I can't get up, some nights I cannot sleep
But Your Word reminds me, You're the shepherd of my grief
You knew this pain, dear Jesus, You watched Your son die too
So when the weight is crushing me, I'm gonna run to You
They say time will heal it, but only You can mend
This broken mother's heart until I see my boy again
My son, my angel, now you're dancing with the King
Though my arms are empty, I hear heaven's angels sing
One day I'll hold you, in that place beyond the sky
Until then, sweet baby, Mama's gonna try
To find strength in Jesus, to believe You have a plan
My son, my angel, in the Father's hands
Yes Lord, thank You Jesus
Till we meet in glory
My beautiful baby boy
Amen
