For Our Children

Sometimes it seems That life’s unfair Pain moves in To cause despair It seems to me That all who live Have so much They want to give Especially when It involves our child Our thoughts are always Running wild Anything that we must do We do our best to get it done We’ll stay right there by their side Because they are our loved one It always more difficult When it’s a child of your own Anywhere they have to stay You won’t leave them alone People often question Why’s this happening to me They look up to the heavens But answers they don’t see Tears fall so easily As they cry away their fear They sometimes fall to their knees Hoping that God will hear But the one thing to always know Is that God is close at hand All that you are going through He already understands We sometimes even blame Him For own suffering and pain We say so many negative things Sometimes we take his name in vain But through it all he forgives us For our outbursts and our blame Because He knows our pain to well At times He’s been through the same But believe that somewhere out there Miracles are taking place You see that in the beauty Being a member of the human race So just when things look their worst That’s when they start to improve Then all the doubt you had in faith Will slowly be removed Pain unfortunately is a part Of the life that we all live It lives inside everyone To now and again hold us captive © 2-18-11/RJH
