Steven Curtis Chapman - Parent's Prayer Lyrics
I guess we have always knownThat a day like this one would comeWhen our children would leave usAnd begin to build a home of their ownLord, all you have taught usWe have gladly passed on to themBut one thing we don't knowIs how to place them back in your arms againCHORUS:Lord, help us let go of twoThat they might become oneJust like the Father, Spirit, and SonTwo hearts invisibly bound in loveBy a vow that will not be undoneNow in your tender careLord, be all that we cannot beAnd help us to trust youWhen we don't see you quickly meeting their needsFor you have providedSince the day you gave our children to usBut now, in your arms dear JesusThe time has come for giving them upRepeat CHORUSThe urge is strongTo try holding onTo the image of twoThe way that we knew themBut now in your eyesThe two will be as oneRepeat CHORUS 2 timesTAG:By a vow that will not be undoneBy a vow that will not be undone
