This poem is dedicated to my mom who left us to be with Jesus yesterday:
Oh baby oh baby
Where have you been
I dreamed of you on a starry night
A love that I never knew I might
Have to hold
So sweet
So bold
Hearts you’ll change
Worlds you’ll save
A future you’ll bring
Oh baby oh baby
What love!
So dear
So sweet
A touch from
an infant
So wise
Oh baby oh baby
Your love I sought
Before I knew
What joy!
What healing you brought
God gave me you
A strength I never thought
Would awaken in this stable
Would carry me to the cross
Oh baby oh Immanuel, God with us…
I’ll hold you so close
Til one day
My loss their gain
Your joy; your love
Without constraint
Gathering CLOSE
