Song To My Unborn Child

This is dedicated to our unborn child, whom I never held in my arms.
Our child was miscarried at 7 weeks. I hope to see our child again someday.

My beloved child, you never were born;
I never held you within my arms,
I never gazed upon your sweet smile,
I never was drawn into your charms.

My beloved child, you never were born;
I never heard your cute baby talk,
I never sighed as you held my hand,
I never watched as you learned to walk.

My beloved child, you never were born;
I never sang you a lullabye,
I never kissed your forehead good night,
I never rocked you when you did cry.

My beloved child, you never were born;
I never brushed your locks of soft hair,
I never tickled you on your feet,
I never caressed your skin so fair.

My beloved child, you never were born;
I never watched as you moved and played,
I never heard you sing your first song,
I never soothed you when you were afraid.

My beloved child, you never were born;
I know we will meet again some day,
For now God wants you to be with Him,
But once we meet you will not be taken away.
