Streets Of Heaven

Sherrie Austin

Hello God..it's me again

2 a.m. room 304

Visiting hours are over

Time for our bed side tug of war

This sleeping child between us

May not make it through the night

I'm fighting back the tears, as she fights for her life....

Well it must be kinda crowded

On the streets of Heaven

So tell me, what do You need her for?

Don't you know one day she'll be Your

Little girl forever

But right now, I need her so much more.

She's much to young, to be on her own

Barely just turned 7....

So who will hold her hand when she crosses

The streets of Heaven??

Tell me God, do You remember

The wishes that she made

When she blew out the candles,

On her last birthday cake??

She wants to ride a pony,

When she's big enough.

She wants to marry her daddy,

When she's all grown up...

Lord don't you know,

She's my angel?

You got plenty of your own.

And I know You hold a place for her

But she's already got a home.

Well, I don't know if Your listening

But prayings all that's left to do.

So I ask you Lord have mercy,

You lost a Son once too.

And it must be kinda crowded

On the streets of Heaven

So tell me what do You need her for?

Don't you know one day

She'll be Your little girl forever

But right now, I need her so much more.

Lord I know, once You've made up Your mind

There's no use in begging

So if You take her with You today

Will You make sure she looks both ways....

And would You hold her hand when

She crosses the streets of Heaven.......

The streets of Heaven.
