I remember the first fight
The Bated breath, blurred eyes
On my knees, begging please,
Are you sure this is right?
…
Can you see me? Can you hear me?
I`m fighting, for us
Stay with me, but it just
Isn`t enough, I fear
…
You left anyway.
…
I remember the first release
The aching heart, numbing chill
Standing strong in mind and will
Yet deep inside still begging please
…
You can`t see me. You can`t hear
My pain won`t heal you
It won`t lift you, so
You won`t see a single tear
…
Because you left anyway
…
I remember every prayer
May healing cry, blessing plea
Abba, please let them seeh Thee
Never as Yours will be my care
…
You can see me. You can hear
I`m still fighting for them
Better now than ever then
On my knees, playing down my fear
…
Because You let them leave anyway
…
I remember coming to trust
That taking them away from me
Was actually making them free
To see You as they truly must
…
Can they see You? Can they hear?
I don`t need to be
In their lives for them to see
That You will always be near
…
You have a plan for them anyway
…
Today if I stand at another release
With Prayerful hear, hurting, though
Knowing I must let them go
And to You only I will give my plea
…
I can see them, I can hear
They`re fighting strong,
But never alone
I`ll keep carrying them to You in prayer
…
Though You will lift them anyway
