Lyrics Dave Barnes – Song For My Children
Text:
I swear sometimes I miss you
Like I’m already gone
The little light of sunset on your face
I hope I’m years and years from leaving
There’s things I need to tell you just in case
May your life be long
Your friendships deep
May your heart be kind and true
I pray you know the peace of God
And how deeply I love you
I thought that I was living
Until you came along
Now all of you are all a part of me
Every breath you take, a blessing
Every smile a gift to me
Every day with you is twice as sweet
May your life be long
Your friendships deep
May your heart be kind and true
I pray you know the peace of God
And how deeply I love you
Someday you may need forgive me
For the things that I’ve done wrong
You can blame me for the things I’ve handed down
But I beg you see my brokenness
Is how the light got in
Amazing grace, oh how sweet the sound
May your life be long
Your friendships deep
I pray you know the peace of God
And how deeply I love you
