“Baby, Baby, Where Did You Go?”

Mommy says, “Baby, Baby, where did you go?”
“Won’t you please tell me…I’ve just got to know?”
Mommy asks, “Where did you go Baby that you cannot be found?”
Baby says, “Look not for me here Mommy, for I am Heaven bound.”
“I am way up here where the trumpets herald and the Angels sing,
And I sit upon the lap of Jesus the King.”
Jesus said, “He had a special job for me, and that it couldn’t wait.”
“Guess what? He even met me with Great Granny at the great big pearly gate.”
“And even for a while Jesus gave to me His hand to hold,
And up upon my head Mommy, He placed a ring of gold.”
“My steadfast gaze on all the miles to roam,”
Jesus bent down and whispered, “This is your new home.”
“My days were all numbered, but not counted on earth below,
But I am up here, Mommy I just thought you should know.”
Mommy says, “Baby how shall I find you, now that you’ve left my side?”
Baby says, “Oh, you’ll know it’s me Mommy, I’ll have my arms held open wide.”
“He gave to us…each other for a time and a while,
Until He formed on my face…a precious little smile.”
“I love you so much Mommy from my head down to my feet,
I’ll be here waiting with Jesus, until the two of us should meet.”
“Baby, Baby”, Mommy says, “Where did you go?”
Baby says, “I went up to Heaven from the earth down below.”
“When you look to the heavens and see all the starry hosts, it’s me,” Baby saying,
“Mommy, I love you the most!”
“I know I can’t be with you, and you probably can’t dry your eyes,
But Mommy, please know that way up here in Heaven, your tears are changed to lullabies.”
