Dear Lord, You placed a soul on earth
And through Your love you gave Jenn worth
As she lay in her mother’s arms.
Your plan revealed the baby’s charms.
But as time passed a shadow fell.
Your special soul became unwell
And shadows formed along her way
Until each day seemed cold and grey.
She learned of fighting off the pain
And sometimes felt an endless strain
Yet, with Your strength she fought it all.
Then we joined her and sent our call
In prayer to ask You intervene
And send some peace onto the scene.
We prayed she’d find what faith can give
Rest through the night, the will to live.
For all this time she’s carried on
Though sometimes wondering if the dawn
Would ever see her whole and free
To breathe, no pain and peacefully
To have the chance to live once more
With hope for what life has in store.
We thank You Lord as You bestow
Her brand new lungs a chance to grow.
