    What a Longing – Music and Lyric by Steve Bell

    Many times a day I think of you
    And how our family’s grown in just these last few years
    What a feeling
    And I marvel looking at you
    You’re a mama
    I’m a papa

    And as I ponder what we’ll pass along
    The only family fortune is our God
    What a longing
    To see our children behold Him
    Like their mama
    Like their papa

    For some reason now I’m caused to think of Him
    Jesus weeping for Jerusalem
    What a longing
    To gather under His wings
    Like a mama
    Like a papa

      We’ll always be “a mama”, we’ll always be “a papa” whether we are on this earth or not.

      The ‘holes’ don’t heal but memories past and future, help ‘f’ill’ them up.

      Blessings
