Letting Go

 
I weep and hold you in my arms
my child, so pure and new.
It’s so hard to give you up,
but something I must do.

 
As I look into your baby eyes
and hold your little hand,
I pray the Lord will help you
that one day you’ll understand.

 
Although I want to keep you,
and though my heart is sad,
you need a better start at life,
with an able mother, and dad.

 
Wrap your love around them
and your father up above,
and have a life that overflows
with happiness, and love.
