Hold your child

Kim Marks 1960 (Washington)



Hold your Child tight tonight, tell them how special they are, and how you know you’re not always right so hold them extra tight tonight, let them know with all your might how much you love them so and pray to God to keep them safe wherever they may go in case he takes them from your site pray he’ll keep them by his side until the time for you to go, don’t wait until tomorrow it may be much too late so hold them extra tight tonight and tell them how special they are!
