Tiny Hearts (UPDATED with Lyrics!)

Today is National Day of Remembrance for Pregnancy and Infant Loss.

The song you hear playing is written by Robbie Lee. He and his wife are very good friends of ours. They loss of three babies due to miscarriage, and Robbie wrote this song for his wife, Christi, and gave it to her as a Christmas present. They have three children in heaven, and three here on earth; Christopher, Gabriel and Carolina.

I pray for each of us that have ever lost a child through abortion, miscarriage or birth, that we would find comfort in the fact that HE holds our Tiny Hearts; forever in that place. One day, we will all gather at the table...

Love,

Bridgette

Here are the lyrics to the song, Tiny Hearts.

Tiny Hearts Words and Music: Robbie LeeCopyright �2005 by Robbie Lee BMI All Rights Reserved [Verse 1]

As we stand here

Broken and confused

With our faces to the ground

To cover the fatal wounds

If only words can comfort now

I've got nothing to bring

But I know someone, yea I know someone

And He holds everything Days run in to nights and on tomorrow

But there's no need to cry because I know [Chorus]

There are three tiny hearts beating

Keeping time singing

With angels shouting, "Hallelujah!"Now,

He's taken them higher

And holding them tighter

Than we could ever long for

Our children say, "Daddy will we ever see them?"

Oh yes we will

When we're gathered at the table

A day when the heavenly host lead us in grace

And our hearts beat, they will always beat forever in that place [Verse 2]

If we could see beyond

Grey skies like a river running on and on

We would see what's shining and we would find

More love coming with open arms Lost in a world we don't belong

But there's one thing I'm sure we can depend on

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

Carolina's dancin' to the beat of Christopher's drum

Gabriel will you blow your horn tonight

Because we know [Reprise]

Three tiny hearts beating

Keeping time singing

With angels shouting, "Hallelujah!"Now,

He's taken them higher

And holding them tighter

Than we could ever long for

Three tiny hearts beating

Forever in that place
