I see my Mommy’s teary eyes and Daddy’s head bowed down

And look at all the children and the grown ups in my town.

I know that you’re all sad and cry a lot since I’ve been gone

But I also see my Mommy smile and hear my Daddy’s song.

I’m thankful you were there for me and loved me with such care

I know you miss the laughs and hugs and kisses that we shared.

But you smile now because you know I have great work to do

And I can count on you to come and join me when you’re through. 

I have my Elder Brother here who helps in every way.

It’s Him that brought me here from Earth, seems just the other day.

He says He will watch over those I love and left below

Until we’re back together. He’ll take care of you, I know.

It’s okay to shed a tear or two when you are sad.

I do the same when I think of my loving Mom and Dad,

But then I am reminded of God’s plan for everyone…

Through Him I’ll ever love you and will always be your son.

I’m Thinking of You

I see my Mommy’s teary eyes and Daddy’s head bowed down

And look at all the children and the grown ups in my town.

I know that you’re all sad and cry a lot since I’ve been gone

But I also see my Mommy smile and hear my Daddy’s song.

I’m thankful you were there for me and loved me with such care

I know you miss the laughs and hugs and kisses that we shared.

But you smile now because you know I have great work to do

And I can count on you to come and join me when you’re through. 

I have my Elder Brother here who helps in every way.

It’s Him that brought me here from Earth, seems just the other day.

He says He will watch over those I love and left below

Until we’re back together. He’ll take care of you, I know.

It’s okay to shed a tear or two when you are sad.

I do the same when I think of my loving Mom and Dad,

But then I am reminded of God’s plan for all the world…

Through Him I’ll ever love you and will always be your girl.
