Child Of Mine
© Theresa Mcdermott Cassidy
He's walking towards me surrounded by light
I can't believe this miraculous sight
It can't be him, I know he is dead
But as I look towards him, he's shaking his head
I did not die, I am still here
Look into your heart, I've always been near
My body died, yes, but not my soul
You never had to let me go
Speak my name, talk to me
It really is simple if you believe
My spirit is here, I'm still around
My love for you can still be found
Don't weep for me, shed no more tears
Remember the good times over the years
Our time together did not end
One day we'll be together again
Whenever you're lonely or feeling sad
Look back on the wonderful years that we had
One day God will call you, and bring you home
You'll be right here with me, where you belong
Until that time comes, live your life well
I will be here for you, if you need my help
Be happy, be gracious, be loving and kind
Please know I'm still with you, child of mine.
