"The Words I Would Say"

I heard this song on the radio the other morning when I was going to work. While I doubt that the song was written as words from a mom to her son, I listened to the lyrics of the chorus and I couldn't help but think of my little guy. Even now, I'm listening to the song again and I've got tears in my eyes.

I know that God has a plan for his life. He's had His hand on him since before he was even born. And it is always my prayer that Cooper would know that and believe it. That he would feel loved and safe. That he would grow up strong and courageous and love the Lord with all his heart.

So from the song "The Words I Would Say" by Sidewalk Prophets

Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
These are the words I would say
