My little angel's gone from this place--
God replaced her with His mercy and grace.
Doesn't seem fair, doesn't feel right,
That I can't even kiss my angel good night.

But God Himself has brought me to this place,
Not just to my knees, but flat on my face--
Bowing to Him, as He's wanted all along,
Praising my Father through prayer and song.

So just for the moment, just for a little while,
I'll have to close my eyes to see her precious smile.
But when I open them at Heaven's gate,
I'll know then that it was worth the wait!
