[Verse 1]
Tiny sneakers by the doorway
Game still paused on the screen
Every room still says your name
But you’re living in my memory
I still hear your Sunday laughter
Chasing light down the hall
Twelve short years
Felt like forever
Now I’m learning how to walk through this at all
[Chorus]
Isaiah
My Royal Child
You’re in the arms of the Father now
I’m holding on
Through the ache
Through the pain
He called you softly by your royal name
Isaiah
My Royal Child
You’re in the choir of heaven now
I’ll see you again
When He calls me the same
Till then I’ll praise Him through the rain
[Verse 2]
Pictures framed around the table
Birthday candles never lit
I keep asking all my questions
He keeps answering
“I’m in it”
You taught me love in every moment
How to laugh
How to pray
Even though my heart is breaking
I still lift my hands and say
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
You’re not gone
You’re just gone ahead
Resting where the angels sing instead
I feel you when the church doors open
In every hallelujah spoken
I’ll carry your smile like a song in my chest
Until I lay these tears to rest
[Chorus]
