Elijah Daniel, we will miss you
A visitor from heaven if only for awhile -
A gift of love to be returned, we think of you and smile.
A visitor from heaven accompanied by grace –
Reminding of a better love and of a better place.
With aching hearts and empty arms we send you with a name.
It hurts so much to let you go, but we’re so glad you came.
A visitor from heaven if only for a day.
We thank Him for the time He gave and now it’s time to say,
“We trust you to the Father’s love and to His tender care
Held in the everlasting arms and we’re so glad you’re there.
With breaking hearts and open hands we send you with a name.
It hurts so much to let you go, but we’re so glad you came.
We’re so glad you came.
