GIVING IN

by DSPICES - Not entered

Giving In
You know how hard it is for me
To share with you what God gave me
It is a preciouse gift from God above
Somthing that takes patience and love

A little boy broken in two
With a heart that has been battered and bruised
A boy who needs a dad
Someone to love him when he is sad.

This gift from God has been a challange for me
And all of the sudden it is not just me
There you are in the mist of the war
And asking to help through this open door

To take your help would be giving in
Not to take it would be a sin
You see God sent you into our lifes
To get rid of all the fear and strife

But I am afraid of this I want you to know
So afraid that it hurts me to show
All of the scars that are way down deep
The ones I hide and cry in my sleep
 
I asked God to help me and he must have heard my prayer
Because it dont hurt as bad,but it is still there
I still am not sure of these questions in my mind
It is realy hard to leave the past behind

But he sent you to us to love and care for us
And with that you have done your job
Because your a wounderful father to my son

So to give in and hand it to you
Is not as hard forI know it is what I must do
I am trusting you with the only thing I have done good in my life
And I hope you take pride in being a father to John
And that you are happy as me as your wife

I love you for all you are to us
For working hard and no matter what the cost
Friends for life I hope we will always be
Forever with love your wife Lee
