Lord, Help Us

Lord, help us with the tragic loss of our child,

the grief too much to bear

It’s impossible for us to hear comforting words

from all the friends who care

We can’t realize this right now,

but the days, they will pass

God will help ease our pain,

but memories of our baby will last and last...

As our plentiful tears continue to flow,

we ask our dear Lord, "Why?"

He wishes He could take away all evil...

Because it also makes Him cry.

The emptiness won’t leave our hearts,

visions of his smiles and laughter remain

But when we believe in our Great God,

we know we’ll see our Brandon again.

The sun rises and sets upon Megan,

and whatever tomorrow brings....

Our baby is safe with God,

and our angel has his wings.
