A Song for Benedict - Meet Me There
Created by Jan 12 years ago
When all is quiet in the early hours
I remember holding you close
I sang to you with a broken voice
and a broken heart.
But my voice became stronger
as I felt how close you were to God
An Angel's arms around us both
gave me the strength to sing
the lullabies I sang for your Daddy.
When all is quiet in the early hours
and I remember you
Meet Me There.
If your mummy and daddy
forget their grief for a while
and somehow find the strength to smile
Meet Them There.
A noisy bird, a feather, a heart-shaped cloud
Show them you are near and laughing out loud.
Teach them how to laugh again.
Meet Them There.
When your big sister Merry is feeling sad
envelop her in your bright Angel wings and
Meet Her There.
When she is running, playing, filled with Joy
Meet Her There and share Joy with her
For we know you ARE with her and with all of us
We just can't see you.
Yet.
When your Nana and Pappap walk beside the stream
immersed in nature's healing
Meet Us There and walk beside us.
The beat of every wing, the buzz of every bee,
the song of every bird will remind us of you.
Please Meet Us There.
And when my time has come to join you
and make my way to Heaven
I will sing you to me, my little grandson
Listen out for my song and Meet Me There.
Please Meet Me There
and I will hold you close to my heart again.
