More Verses to a Special Song

At Benjamin's funeral we sang I am a Child of God. That song will always have such a special place in my heart and always remind me of my blessed child. Today while I was reading a friends blog I found a link to another mom whose daughter just returned Home and I was so touched by these additional lyrics I had to post them.

I am a child of God and He has called me home.
My earthly journey's through but still, I do not walk alone.
He leads me, guides me, walks beside me, helps me find the way.
He welcomed me with open arms. I live with Him today.

I am a child of God and I have gone ahead.
My earthly life was brief but oh, such peace and love you gave.
You loved me, held me, stood beside me and though I cannot stay.
You gave me much to help me and I live with Him today.

I am a child of God and I will wait for you.
Celestial glory shall be ours, if you can but endure.
I'll lead you, guide you, walk beside you.Help you find the way.
I'll welcome you with open armsOne bright Celestial day.

Aw, this song is so sweet... I mean, makes you wanna cry sweet. I was thinking of you yesterday. I got on my old computer I haven't seen in a year and there were a few pictures of Ben-at Tanya's birthday part, at Outback, and then from my old camera phone of Tanya holding him. He really was our little buddy!
