I know I have been posting a lot of songs in the past few weeks, but God has really been speaking to me and comforting me through music lately. I seem to always have some song running through my head these days. It makes me feel closer to Him and not alone in my feelings. There are so many people hurting out there, regardless of the situation, and these songs are reminders that we are not alone in our hurt.
My friend Lindsay passed this song on to me and it brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it…definitely my favorite right now. Get your tissues ready. The song makes me cry a lot from sadness but mostly because I know that I will get to meet my baby one day. My favorite quote from the song is, “But baby let sweet Jesus hold you ‘till mom and dad can hold you…” Thank you Jesus for holding my baby until I can get there!!!
“Glory Baby” by Watermark
Glory baby you slipped away as fast as we could say baby…baby..
You were growing, what happened dear?
You disappeared on us baby…baby...
Heaven will hold you before we do
Heaven will keep you safe until we’re home with you…
Until we’re home with you…
Miss you everyday
Miss you in every way
But we know there’s a
day when we will hold you
We will hold you
You’ll kiss our tears away
When we’re home to stay
Can’t wait for the day when we will see you
We will see you
But baby let sweet Jesus hold you
‘till mom and dad can hold you…
You’ll just have heaven before we do
You’ll just have heaven before we do
Sweet little babies, it’s hard to
understand it ‘cause we’re hurting
We are hurting
But there is healing
And we know we’re stronger people through the growing
And in knowing-
That all things work together for our good
And God works His purposes just like He said He would…
Just like He said He would…
BRIDGE:
I can’t imagine heaven’s lullabies
and what they must sound like
But I will rest in knowing, heaven is your home
And it’s all you’ll ever know…all you’ll ever know…
You can listen to the song here. (It is a version performed by someone else, not Watermark, but I couldn’t find the entire Watermark version on the internet. You can download it on iTunes though!)
This one really helped me through as well. Also, if you haven't listened to "I Will Carry You" by Selah, you should look that one up too.
ReplyDeleteI think it is so incredible how God reaches out to us and touches us through music - and especially that you are finding solace in certain songs. I listen to Positive Life Radio here in the Pacific NW. Listening to this station during our IF struggle was such a boost and helped me to remember to cling to my Father when I felt like I was being tossed about by the world.
ReplyDeleteStill praying for you both!
Wow. That is amazing. Isn't it great how God knows just what we need? This morning I woke up to a text message that was a prayer from a friend. God is so good.
