Lucas' Prayer
The pitter patter of little feet
I never got to hear
The precious face I did not meet
But Lord, you held him dear
I never sang a
lullaby
I never said good night
I never got to say good-bye
But Lord, you held him tight
Thank you
Father, for forgiving me
And for taking care of him
For showing me your mercy
When my heart felt heavy and grim
For they know
not what they do
I read that verse with care
I did not know, it¯s true
The pain that I would bear
Then came along
his brother
Your gift, my living hope
I did not deserve him, nor any other
But I now know your mercy¯s scope
Lord, in his
precious memory
Could you help me to be strong
To fulfill your destiny for me
And to pass your grace along
Just one more
thing I want to say
Thank you once again
For watching over him each day
Until I join you both in heaven
