For those that have lost a child

I got this song off of Gracie's playlist. As I read the lyrics I began crying. My little brother Danny was taken from us when I was a little girl. Seeing Gracie's family go through this tough trial makes my heart break and brings back so many memories of Danny. Songs like this make it eaiser for loved ones to know their baby is being taken care of and that we will see them again. I never knew this but "I Am A Child Of God" has a special verse that was written for parents who have lost a child. I thought I would post those lyrics:

I am a child of God and He has called me home.
My earthly journey's through but still, I do not walk alone.
He leads me, guides me, walks beside me, helps me find the way.
He welcomed me with open arms. I live with Him today.


I am a child of God and I have gone ahead.
My earthly life was brief but oh, such peace and love you gave.
You loved me, held me, stood beside me and though I cannot stay.
You gave me much to help me and I live with Him today.


I am a child of God and I will wait for you.
Celestial glory shall be ours, if you can but endure.
I'll lead you, guide you, walk beside you.
Help you find the way.
I'll welcome you with open arms
One bright Celestial day.
