A gift so small and fragile,
given from above.
So brief we held his tiny form
and showered him with love.
And though his time was short with us
Our heart and lives are changed
And aching from such a loss
We'll never be the same.
So, Father, now we beg of you
Please come and take our hand.
For this valley of sorrow
is unfamiliar land.
We do not know Your ways, O Lord,
We do not understand -
All that You have willed for us
or all that You have planned.
Speak peace, O Lord, to aching hearts
who long to hear your voice.
Remind us Lord that though we grieve
One day we will rejoice.
For standing on the other bank
of heaven's glowing shore
We will one day step across
to see our son once more.
And on that day he'll tell us
all that he has done.
Of all the games he's played there
of all of heaven's fun.
And once again we'll hold him
and see his sweet smile.
We will whisper his name again
and hug our dear child.
Till that day, O Lord, we ask
that you pass on our love.
Let it be a quiet lullaby
until we meet him in heaven above.
Ayden Brown.

To his family: You remain in our thoughts and prayers daily. May the Lord comfort and keep you in this valley of loss.
