"In My Heart" Lyrics
Verse 1
When August snow came round that year,
With hope and patient joy
We were waiting for September's gift,
Our precious baby boy.
But a winter chill swept through the air,
And altered all our plans.
For life was still, so suddenly,
And helpless were our hands.
Pre-chorus
Love gives, and Love takes away.
"May it be done!" is all I can say,
As I wipe my tears away.
Chorus
If I can't hold you close and rock you to sleep,
I'll love you while we're apart.
Until we sing as one the praise of Our King,
I'll hold you in my heart.
Verse 2
No time as this, no words to say,
Save those that bring new life.
And in the stream that crossed his brow
Flowed why we're man and wife.
Then in our arms we held him long
—Breathless, yet so fair.
And with the Morning Star we had
Our own pieta there.
Pre-chorus
Love gives, and Love takes away.
"May it be done!" is all I can say,
As I wipe my tears away.
Chorus
If I can't hold you close and rock you to sleep,
I'll love you while we're apart.
Until we sing as one the praise of Our King,
I'll hold you in my heart.
Bridge
The world can't know the hidden pain,
When sorrow's sword strikes home.
But hidden also is our joy,
That's from the world to come.
Chorus
If I can't hold you close and rock you to sleep,
I'll love you while we're apart.
Until we sing as one the praise of Our King,
I'll hold you in my heart.

Verse 1
Autumn leaves are turning
To welcome harvest time.
How precious were October joys, when
First we held the apple of our eye.
Pre-chorus
Baby dolls and pink bows,
And childhood innocence:
Not so long ago,
Brought so much happiness!
The candles burn so bright,
But I can only see:
Chorus
Sixteen…flames of love!
Sixteen…golden years from heaven above!
Sixteen…smiles so sweet and strong!
And joyful tears for all the graceful beauty
Unfolding as you grow, as you grow along.
Verse 2
Autumn colors spring forth,
Around the steps you take.
Patience, in the wider world you'll see
The place your prayerful guidance will make.
Pre-chorus
Classics, tea, and girlfriends,
With childlike innocence.
Steady, winds will blow,
So keep your confidence.
The candles burn so bright,
But I can only see:
Chorus
Sixteen…flames of love!
Sixteen…golden years from heaven above!
Sixteen…smiles so sweet and strong!
And joyful tears for all the graceful beauty
Unfolding as you grow, as you grow along.
Bridge
And all our pride and joy and love
We'll send with you,
As you grow, so sweetly, along.
