Song about a miscarriage

lyrics

A baby up in Heaven
Your face I could not see
Could not hold you in my arms
You were taken far from me.

A little boy or girl
What name would I give you?
What color was your hair
Would you have green eyes or blue?

But God had other plans
Though I don’t understand
But one thing, yes, one thing I know

Chorus
Jesus will keep you in His care
Until Mommy makes it there
And then we’ll laugh and jump and play
In God’s eternal day
It’s better there anyway.

You came to me so quickly
But you left, oh, so soon
For just a few short days
I held you in my womb

And though those days are over
And with me you could not stay
You can call me Mommy
When we meet again one day.

Chorus
And why, oh why
Does God give and take away
And why, oh why
I don’t know but it’s okay.
