Songs for Child Loss

Songs for Child Loss

I write poems and songs about child loss because I lost my only son. If you’ve lost a child, then you know the acute pain of grieving your child. It’s impossible, it’s ongoing, and it’s soul searching. I am always thinking about my son, loving and missing him, what could have, should have, would have been.

I find hope and healing writing poems and songs. Perhaps in listening and reading, you will, too.

I also write poems about losing a child. You can read them here-Find Hope Here: Featuring Poems About Losing a Child

My Child on Earth Above In Heaven’s Care

My Child On Earth Above, In Heaven’s Care

Lyrics: My Child on Earth Above, In Heaven’s Care

As I tuck you in, I lay me down
As I hold you now, I lift my arms
As I fall to sleep, I pray for you
My child, my love, my heart, I’m with you too
My child, my love, my heart, may God keep and love you

And you will be forevermore
Safe from this world and so adored
And God will be your comforter
And I will always thank God for rescuing you
And I will always praise God for loving you too

And so I live my life in memory
Surrendering to God, what now must be
But here on earth I know the angels sing
When I hear your voice I know God’s listening

And I will always be your mother here
And I will speak your name for all to hear
And God will be with you ’til I get there
My child on earth above in heaven’s care
My child on earth above in heaven’s care.

My Child on Earth Above, In Heaven’s Care, All Music & Lyrics:©Beth Brown, My Forever Son

You’re Free Now Child

Lyrics:

You’re Free Now Child

I can’t see where you’ve gone
And I don’t know how to just go on
Without you can’t find my way
Don’t know where to go or what to say
How to breathe without you now
When it aches upon my soul

In my heart, you live forever, with me by my side
In my life, you’re all I ever wanted
My child, my one true love
Without you here, each day that passes
is just another day I must survive

How to keep on keeping on
How to open up my eyes
Again to see what God has done
You’re free now child of mine to fly

So rest on easy fly on by
Soul travel now to be with God
My dearest child, my heart of mine
Know I’ll be there when it’s time

I miss you more than words
More than galaxies are wide
I long to hold you as you were
To have you reach across inside
To where you live forever
And to where I hold you close for life

How to keep on keeping on
How to open up my eyes
Again to see what God has done
You’re free now child of mine to fly

So rest on easy fly on by
Soul travel now to be with God
My dearest child, my heart of mine
Know I’ll be there when it’s time


You’re Free Now Child, All Music & Lyrics: ©Beth Brown, My Forever Son
