A New Hand In Yours

That day was very special
When the test came back “Yes”.
No longer must you wonder.
There’s no more second guess.

The moment you conceived
A dream had come true.
There’s now a little life
Growing inside of you.

The baby is depending
On all that you do.
It’s an awesome feeling
That is now placed on you.

As the months go by now.
Baby and you will grow.
Movement will be felt,
And your voice, the child knows.

And when that time arrives
When growing in you is no more.
Then God will be giving
A brand new hand in yours.
