Verse 1
Beyond the quiet breaking of our hearts
Past the day the rain fell down
There’s a garden made of mercy
Where no tears are ever found
Your tiny hands reached heaven
Before this world could try
And God said, “Come here, little one,”
And lifted you up high
Pre-Chorus
No pain has ever touched you
No night has made you fear
You’re wrapped in arms eternal
With the ones we’re missing here
Chorus
She’s safe in Heaven’s glory
Where every child belongs
Held close to God forever
Cradled in His arms
My daddy sings her lullabies
Nana’s never far
Angels keep their watch all night
Right where my baby is
She’s happy, whole, and waiting
In a place of perfect love
Matthew said it best of all
God keeps His children close
Up above
Verse 2
My father’s arms are steady
Strong the way they were with me
Nana’s smile is full again
The way I remember it to be
They whisper her my stories
Tell her who her mama is
That I loved her for a lifetime
In moments measured small
Pre-Chorus
And when the ache feels endless
And the nights won’t let me sleep
I remember heaven’s promise
My baby’s not too far from me
Chorus
She’s safe in Heaven’s glory
Where every child belongs
“Let the little ones come to me,”
Says the voice that can’t be wrong
Angels dance in purple light
Heaven knows her name
She’s learning joy, she’s learning peace
Before she learned our pain
She’s happy, whole, and waiting
Where broken hearts are healed
God holds her close against His own
Just like the scriptures said
Bridge
One day I’ll feel her again
Not in sorrow, not in tears
But in arms that never end
After all these years
Until that day, I’ll trust His word
Though my heart still aches
Heaven didn’t steal my child
It kept her safe
Last Chorus (soft)
She’s safe in Heaven’s glory
Never lost, never gone
Held by God, surrounded
By a love that’s strong
My dad, my nana, angels bright
Guard her every day
And she’ll run into my arms again
When God says it’s okay
Outro
“For the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
Until then, my sweet girl…
Wait for mama.
