A PARENTS PRAYER
Written by Arland l. Hearn (Chip)
Our Heavenly Father I stand before
you with hands open and a heart
which is filled with love so strong that it now cries with pain.
For the love which was given to our children
has been pulled from our heart.
And all that remains is sadness and
sorrow within a heart which is broken.
The pieces which I bring before you I lay at your feet
for only you can mend with love that which is broken.
As I see the face which I gently touched with love I know
that my world will never again be the same.
For this child was more than part of
my world for He/She was my world.
The greatest and best part of my life
which has now been taken away.
A gift from above, a jewel, a star to light my world,
someone so special that I would gladly
lay down my life in exchange for
theirs.
And when I remember them I will shed
a tear and remember much
and feel their love once more.
For I know that where you are she/He
is and my heart both cry's and
rejoices.
For I know that you have prepared a place
for them where they can live
forever,
So when I gaze up into the heavens and
see their beauty then I will know
how special each one of your stars are
For they were the light which warmed
someone world with love.
And now they look down on this world and
shed there light for the whole
world to see.
I would ask only that the love which
She/He has instilled within me
that I might have the ability to not
only show others that love
but also the same qualities with
which She/He embodied.
AMEN!!
PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO OTHERS
