lyrics

Hands so small
eyes still closed
helpless and unknowing

You are loved
beyond belief
you set our hearts aglowing

Baby girl you stole our hearts
You'll forever be remembered
We know you're safe with Jesus now
In a beautiful place called Heaven
You were taken far too soon
We wish we could've helped you
But we'll see you again someday
In a beautiful place called Heaven

Button nose tiny toes
all wrinkley and new
you'll hold a place
in our hearts
until again we see you

Baby girl you stole our hearts
You'll forever be remembered
We know you're safe with Jesus now
In a beautiful place called Heaven
You were taken far too soon
We wish we could've helped you
But we'll see you again someday
In a beautiful place called Heaven

But we'll see you again someday
In a beautiful place called Heaven
