You’re Free Now Child: A Song About 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

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 Lyrics, You're Free Now Child All Music & Lyrics ©Beth Brown
You’re Free Now Child

Sorrow Buried in Love So swish to sway to sweet lullaby, Baby will fall in dark of the night. Rocking cradle to grave turning truth upside down: Parents die first leaving children behind. In a world topsy-turvy that cannot make sense, Sacred trust shines the brightest in a child’s innocence. When children die first leaving parents behind, Hope flees with the child leaving grief here for life. To live without sorrow seems an admirable stance, To love without pain always breaking your heart, To smile again when it’s been enough time, To heal back to whole what was once then your life. Yet the loss of a child can’t be undone, Even though bid us well, wishing hope move us on. We can move only forward with our child whom we love, Always there with us always, sorrow buried in love.
