To see her grow and become a woman
Fullfill herself, dream her dreams
Watch her fly to the far extremes
Not to hold her back as she soars to
heights as yet unseen
Instead, she lies on a bed
nearly dead
Let go you say? But you protest..
she is not yet dead..
Someone help me, protect her rights
oh, my God the sleepless nights!
She is my child you say,
how could they?
Sit in judgement of life or death
So help us God that she can take
another breath
Oh, wait you say, she sees, she breathes.
Isn't that being alive?
She sits and tries to smile.
She follows you with her eyes.
Oh, wait you say...
They will not wait.
They do not care
They do not weep a parents tears..

i don't know what i'd do if she were my child...cannot imagine the pain her parents feel. written with much empathy and feeling.
They NEED TO LET HER LIVE!!!! I am as frustrated as you are! Believe me. How sad for her mom. How painful. I have a daughter myself and I have no idea what I would do. Our prayers go out to Terri's family.

streets of heaven
Song Lyrics
Hello God its me again
2 a.m. room 304
Visiting hours are over
Time for our bedside tug-of-war
The sleeping child between us
May not make it through the night
Im fightin back the tears, as she fights for her life
Chorus-
Well it must be kinda crowded
On the streets of Heaven
So tell me, what do you need her for?
Dont you know one day,
Shell be your little girl forever
But right now I need her so much more
Shes too young to be on her own
Barely just turned seven
So who will hold her hand when she crosses
The streets of Heaven
Tell me God, do you remember
The wishes that she made
As she blew out the candles
On her last birthday cake
She wants to ride a pony
When shes big enough
She wants to marry her daddy
When shes all grown up
*Chorus*
Lord dont you know shes my angel
Youve got plenty of your own
And I know you hold a place for her,
But shes already got a home
Well I dont know if youre listening,
But prayings all theres left to do
So I ask you Lord have mercy
You lost a son once too
Well it must be kinda crowded
On the streets of Heaven
So tell me, what do you need her for?
Dont you know one day,
Shell be your little girl forever
But right now I need her so much more
And Lord I know once youve made up your mind
Theres no use in beggin
So if you take her with you today
Will you make sure she looks both ways
And will you hold her hand
When she crosses the streets of Heaven
The streets of Heaven
I pray so hard for Ur Girl. it wmust be nice to be a kid someone wants.. prayers
Nava oh ps i added u to my always read list hope u dont mind &n
