february 20th 2008

on the floor with her mom

puttin' her shoes on

getting ready for another day

february 20th

she says

'mom

is it true?

does god really have a big

big house

does it really have a lot of rooms?'

and she says

'i really

really want to go there.'

and i said

'why don't we just talk to him.'

and that's what we did

on february 20th

february 20th

i did my best to explain

how it is that we all go to be with god

how it was the savior came

february 20th

if it's true what he said

god himself sang along with the beautiful song

of rejoicing in heaven

she said

'jesus please come and live in my heart. and someday

can i come live with you?'

we could never have imagined

she'd be going there so soon

so soon

so soon

god only knows

everything that happened in that moment

god only knows

what he whispered to her heart

god only knows

just how thankful i will always be

that he gave her mom and me
