The Precious Arms of Jesus


All the babies, precious babies who will never see their mommas.
And all the mommas, scared mommas who will never see their babies.


I can hear their cries.
I can hear their screams.
I can feel their pain, their confusion, their anguish, their guilt.


They wonder what to do.
They wonder what will happen.
How things will be.
What would have been.


They must forget
but how can they.
They must forgive
but how do they.


Jesus can help them forget and forgive.
Jesus can give them peace to live.


It's only because of Jesus they can go on.


And it's all because of Jesus, wonderful Jesus
can they see
that their baby is loved
and cared for.
That their baby is safe and
secure.


They can go on because they know without a doubt that their heavenly Father
forgives them and loves them.
And when they close their eyes at night
they can see
that their little baby girl is in the precious arms of
Jesus.


Praise God
NOW THEY CAN SEE!
