And we know that in all things God works for the good of those that love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.
Romans 8:28

Please listen to the song that plays on my blog. My wonderful husband wrote the lyrics shortly after our sweet Kinley went to be with Jesus. My cousin and his good friend, Craig Meinhart, wrote the music and recorded the song for us. It's absolutely beautiful and means so much to us!! Let us know what you think!!!


Grow Up In Heaven
Lyrics by Jacob Crum
Music and Vocals by Craig Meinhart


Verse 1

This wasn’t our plan

You fit in my hand

I’m blessed to say

I saw an angel today


Verse 2

Your first steps will be on golden streets

Footprints left from still blackened feet

Forever won’t be that long

I wish I could sing you this song


Chorus

As you, grow up in Heaven

All your life’s been lived

All your purpose is done

I sacrifice the right to hold my little girl


Verse 3

I’m free falling into nothing

Reaching out for life’s shadow

Time would have shown who you’d be

And I’m left to guess how you’ll grow


Bridge

This temporary is shorter than it seems

So trade the lost memories for a chance to dream

Of a place celebrating a baby born asleep


Chorus

As you, grow up in Heaven

All your life’s been lived

All your purpose is done

I sacrifice the right to hold my little girl
