sometimes innocence is abused... but there can be peace in our father's embrace |
"Oh Little Baby" Oh beautiful creation, A work of art, Created by my loving hands Such joy I felt as you grew Each colour Each detail For a deeper purpose I have in you So vulnerable and pure The true side of inner innocence A promise of new life created into flesh Oh Little Baby So pure and small Do you not know how your father loves you so? Loving hands on earth, But shadows of his greater love Each kiss, But a simple vessel of his love for you Oh Little Baby, Do you know what wondrous plans your father has set for you? To grow To thrive To love and be loved To run and play To laugh and cry Oh Little Baby, Do you not know the pride your father has for you? Each conquered mountain a smile upon his face Each tree climbed a twinkle within his eye Oh Little Baby Why do you cry? Do you not know your father loves you so? Oh Little Baby, Why are you hiding? Oh Little Baby Why are you scared? Do you not know your father loves you so? Tear filled eyes gaze up A tremble of a small lip, Father, if you love me, Why do you hit? Father if you love me, Why do you yell? Father if you love me, Why are you always angry? I took a painting to you A work of art, Created by my loving hands Such joy I felt as the picture grew Each colour Each detail For a deeper purpose for my love for you Father why did you throw it away? Did you not like it? Father why are you grabbing me? Stop, your hands They are hurting me Can't you see my tears? See these bruises? Father, Is this what loving me so means? Days long gone Years past on by No longer a baby No longer a child Dull eyes watching from afar They are long dead No life from within A life so dark, A life so alone Broken and rejected, Like a shattered jar, cast aside Unwanted Unloved Oh Little Baby Why do you cry? Do you not know your father loves you so? Oh Little Baby, Why are you hiding? Oh Little Baby Why are you scared? Do you not know your father loves you so? Oh Little Baby, So pure and alone Oh Little Baby So hurt and broken Do you not know your father loves you? See my hands and feet? See their holes? I did this for you Oh Little Baby So pure and innocent See these tears? I shed them all for you Oh Little Baby So small and vulnerable See my back? See their wounds and scars? These are for you Each rip upon my flesh Each drop of blood Yes Little Baby, I bled for you Oh Little Baby Don't you see? All this time, I've always loved you Oh Little Baby Your tears burn my soul Your wounds, Gashes upon my heart Oh Little Baby A work of art, Created by my loving hands Such joy I felt as you grew Each colour Each detail For a deeper purpose I have for you Oh Little Baby, Don't you see? It is I AM, Your Heavenly Father, Who loved you so Who loves you still Oh Little Baby, Oh Little Baby, Hush... Hush... Oh Little Baby Oh Little Baby Hush... Hush... |
