I'm sure none of you knew this....but the couple I play with found out they were pregnant a few weeks ago. They were very excited. Well, about a week ago they lost their baby. Even though they didn't know whether it would've been a girl or a boy...they decided to name it Sarah Rose...for the memory. Tonight while I was at my house alone, I just felt like I should do something for them....besides the typical "I'm so sorry" speech. I wrote a song.
Baby girl
You never came into this cruel world
In a way I am thankful for that
Baby girl
You never had to live a day here
In the midst of the hate and of the fear
In a way I am grateful for that
And your father cries, “Sweet Sarah Rose
My princess, I do love you so.
Oh how I long to be where you are.”
How could so much joy
How could so much pain
Exhaust these fragile bodies
And still so much time remain
How so much could change
Still seems so unclear
It’s been an emotional November
And your father cries, “Sweet Sarah Rose
My princess, I do love you so.
Oh how I long to be where you are.”
Sometimes things are so uncertain.
Sometimes things are so unseen.
But I can see her laughing,
As she’s worshiping her King.
One day we all will join her,
And joyful we will be
When we worship Him together,
And we sing:
Oh Father, our hearts overflow
Sweet Jesus, we do love you so
Oh how we’ve longed to be where you are
Some babies are made
To go straight
To heaven
