Song for My Children

I swear sometimes I miss you

Like I'm already gone

Your little laugh, the sunset on your face

I hope I'm years and years from leaving

A good ways 'til goodbye

There's things I need to tell you just in case

May your life be long

Your friendships deep

May your heart be kind and true

I pray you know the peace of God

And how dearly I love you

I thought that I was living

Until you came along

Now all of you are all a part of me

Every breath you take, a blessing

Every smile a gift to me

Every day with you is twice as sweet

May your life be long

Your friendships deep

May your heart be kind and true

I pray you know the peace of God

And how dearly I love you

Someday you may need forgive me

For the things that I've done wrong

You can blame me for the things I've handed down

But I beg you see my brokenness

Is how the light got in

Amazing grace, oh how sweet the sound

May your life be long

Your friendships deep

May your heart be kind and true

I pray you know the peace of God

And how dearly I love you
