Our angel is at peace.
I saw a baby sleeping on a warm and sunny day
She was cradled by her mother,
with a love no words convey
It was silent love so pure, it was just a love
complete
And this mother kissed her child, while she stroked the tiny
feet
But this mother she was weeping on this warm and sunny day
And she
pulled the child to her, as she silently did pray
Then she gently lay her
baby in the casket by her side
And said "how can I let her go? the pain is
killing me inside"
I tried to turn away from her, the pain too much to
bear
Her misery like nakedness, that she should not have to share
But I
could not turn my eyes away, for the mother, I was she
And the words that I
was whispering "Please God, bring her back to me"
A bed of pink and satin, of
lace and teddy bears
A pillow soft for her sweet head, I placed my baby
there
She was taken from my aching arms, her perfect face no more to
see
Those rosebud lips, the soft small hands, now live in my memory
