Sweet Boy...

Sweet Boy…

I wonder as you wake, Sweet Boy;

   How your day will go.

If your big, round eyes will see the sun

  feeling warmth from head to toe.

Will you lay and wait for someone to come

  To scoop you up with gentleness;

From the crib in which you’ve slept that night

   Into arms filled with tenderness.

Will she hold your gaze and smile at you?

   Will she calm all of your fears?

Will she kiss your face and tickle you?

   Will she wipe away your tears?

One day, my son, the day will come

   When you will be here with me.

Rocking, singing, and signing to you,

   Where the Lord intends you to be.

The silent world in which you’ve lived

  We will soon replace;

With smiles, with laughter and with love

  In a home we’ll all embrace.

Home is where we will wait for you

   Until the Lord brings us to together.

The place where you will have a voice

    And a family you will treasure.

So sleep well tonight, my little man,

   Soon you’ll be here in my arms;

I pray the Lord watches over you

   And keeps you far from harm.

Oh Lord, please hurry and bring him to me

    For every day he’s away;

My hearts beats in anticipation,

    To love him to teach him Your ways; 

But for now, Sweet Boy, I'll blow you a kiss

     That the wind will carry to you;

Bringing peace, comfort and a mothers’ love

    From your home forever and true!
