For when its tough going (as parenthood often is )
Lord, help me remember, when I feel its a chore, the time will come when i'll hold him no more asleep on my chest (the crib refused,the blanket,the pacifier,gone unused) What better place is there to lay his head, than against my heart, my arms, his bed For infants grow up and leave us behind with only memories left to remind us of midnight walking and predawn rocking, of soft helpless babies unable to sleep. So Lord, make me patient and keep me awake while I cradle this baby,and don't let me take for granted the moments I spend in the night with this baby, my joy, my gift, my delight. -------------
