Just thinking...

Lyrics to He's My Son :
I'm down on my knees again tonight,
I'm hoppin' this prayer will turn out right.
See, there is a boy that needs Your help.
I've done all that I can do myself
His mother is tired,
I'm sure You can understand.
Each night as he sleeps
She goes in to hold his hand,
And she tries
Not to cry
As the tears fill her eyes.

Can You hear me?
Am I getting through tonight?
Can You see him?
Can You make him feel all right?
If You can hear me
Let me take his place some how.
See, he's not just anyone, he's my son.

Sometimes late at night I watch him sleep,
I dream of the boy he'd like to be.
I try to be strong and see him through,
But God, who he needs right now is You.
Let him grow old,
Live life without this fear.
What would I be
Living without him here?
He's so tired,
And he's scared
Let him know that You're there.

Can You hear me?
Am I getting through tonight?
Can You see him?
Can You make him feel all right?
If You can hear me
Let me take his place some how.
See, he's not just anyone, he's my son.

Can You hear me?
Am I getting through tonight?
Can You see him?
Can You make him feel all right?
If You can hear me
Let me take his place somehow.
See, he's not just anyone.

Can You hear me?
Can You see him?
Please don't leave him,
He's my son.

I heard this song on Extreme Home Makeover and it instantly took me back to remembering Lucas being in the hospital. I was in tears within seconds. I try not to ever think about that time in our life...I look at our son and see how far he has come and I just try to keep that positive thought in my head at all times. But when I heard this song it forced me to deal with some emotions I have still in my heart over watching Lucas go through so much sickness and pain as a little baby. I ran in his room and got him out of bed and just hugged him and kissed him over and over again. He never woke up but it made me feel better lol! But I love the message of the song...and even though he is not sick anymore...Justin&I ask The Lord to stay with him and watch over him every night and never leave him! Wow...our Lord is definitely amazing!
