A BABY'S SECRET

I'M JUST A LITTLE FELLAR,
WHO DIDNT QUITE MAKE IT THERE.
I WENT STRAIGHT TO BE WITH JESUS,
BUT I'M WAITING FOR YOU HERE.

DON'T YOU FRET ABOUT ME MOMMY,  
I'M IN ALL OF GOD'S LAMBS MOST BLEST.
I'D HAVE LOVED TO STAY THERE WITH YOU,
BUT THE SHEPARD KNOWS WHATS BEST.

THERE ARE MANY DWELLINGS HERE WHERE I LIVE,
THEY WAITED YEARS TO ENTER IN.
STRUGGLED THROUGH A WORLD OF SORROW,
AND THEIR LIVES WERE MARRED WITH SIN.

SO, SWEET MOMMY DON'T YOU SORROW.
WIPE THOSE TEARS AND CHASE THE GLOOM.
I WENT STRAIGHT TO JESUS' BOSOM,
FROM MY LOVELY MOTHER'S WOMB.

THANK YOU FOR THE LIFE YOU GAVE ME.
IT WAS BRIEF, BUT DON'T COMPLAIN.
I HAVE ALL OF HEAVEN'S GLORY,
SUFFERED NONE OF EARTHLINGS PAIN.

THANK YOU FOR THE NAME YOU GAVE ME.
I'D HAVE LOVED TO BROUGHT IT FAME.
BUT IF I'D LINGERED IN LIFE'S SHADOWS,
MIGHT INSTEAD HAVE BROUGHT IT SHAME.

DADDY GAVE ME SOMETHING FOR YOU.
IT'S OUR SECRET MOMMY DEAR.
HE PRESSED IT TIGHT AGAINST MY FOREHEAD,
WHISPERED IN MY TINY EAR.

I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU MOMMY,
YOU AND DADDY.
I'LL BE WITH YOU FOREVER THEN;
THEN I'LL GIVE YOU DADDY'S KISS
