She was only mine a while

Lord, today I sent my baby to You
Please give her wings and let her fly
She’s new at this so take it slow
Teach her how they flutter by
I’ll miss her so though we’d never met
And I’ll never know her smile
But You need her and now she’s Yours
She was only mine a while
She’ll never know pain
And she’ll never know fear
For I know that You will keep her near
And now...
I close my eyes to say good-bye
And watch her fly away to You
Please keep her, Lord, and love her ‘till
I get my wings and join You, too.
