Jealous Of The Angels
I didn't know today would be our last
Or that I'd have to say goodbye to you so fast
I'm so numb, I can't feel anymore
Prayin' you'd just walk back through that door
And tell me that I was only dreamin'
You're not really gone as long as I believe
There will be another angel
Around the throne tonight
Your love lives on inside of me,
And I will hold on tight
It's not my place to question,
Only God knows why
I'm just jealous of the angels
Around the throne tonight
You always made my troubles feel so small
And you were always there to catch me when I'd fall
In a world where heroes come and go
Well God just took the only one I know
So I'll hold you as close as I can
Longing for the day, when I see your face again
But until then
God must need another angel
Around the throne tonight
Your love lives on inside of me
And I will hold on tight
It's not my place to question
Only God knows why
I'm just jealous of the angels
Around the throne tonight
Singin' hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
I'm just jealous of the angels
Around the throne
Tonight
Or that I'd have to say goodbye to you so fast
I'm so numb, I can't feel anymore
Prayin' you'd just walk back through that door
And tell me that I was only dreamin'
You're not really gone as long as I believe
There will be another angel
Around the throne tonight
Your love lives on inside of me,
And I will hold on tight
It's not my place to question,
Only God knows why
I'm just jealous of the angels
Around the throne tonight
You always made my troubles feel so small
And you were always there to catch me when I'd fall
In a world where heroes come and go
Well God just took the only one I know
So I'll hold you as close as I can
Longing for the day, when I see your face again
But until then
God must need another angel
Around the throne tonight
Your love lives on inside of me
And I will hold on tight
It's not my place to question
Only God knows why
I'm just jealous of the angels
Around the throne tonight
Singin' hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
I'm just jealous of the angels
Around the throne
Tonight
Grace Annmarie,
Mama is missing you a lot today and your great grandma! It's your great grandma's birthday today. I often wonder if you celebrate birthdays in heaven or do you celebrate the day you enter heaven's gates? I'd like to think both, but perhaps the latter is more appropriate. It's been a rough day emotionally. I lost your foot and hand prints the nurses made for me to make copies of. I was going to use the copy of your foot if I ever I was ever courageous enough to get a tattoo. I'm so disappointed in myself for being so careless. You see, when I made your cousin Emily her birthday gift, I used the copy of your beautiful feet and hands and taped them to a poem I wrote from you to her. I was in such a rush that I didn't walk the originals back to your chest. I left them in the office to be swept away in a pile of papers. And now, they are gone. I've searched high and low and I'm coming up short...very short. It makes me so upset! I was sad and crying a lot. I still am crying! Your daddy didn't get it. I don't expect him to, but our conversations always end up in an argument. He often thinks because he isn't "emotional" about you that I think he doesn't love you as much as I do. That's not the case at all. Men and women are just wired differently and the things of yours I just hold very close to my heart. Okay, so I maybe I hold everything of you and about you close to my heart. He feels I love you more than him. I just wish we didn't fight over you. We want to make you proud of us. It's so hard when this road isn't getting any easier on me.
I'm also feeling down today because I didn't get to go to your great grandma's grave. I wonder if anyone in our family did? It truly upsets me that I didn't make it a priority. Since I helped out teaching at Saturday school, I was right by her grave too. I was fixated on getting your cousin's birthday gift and getting home to clean, that it didn't dawn on me until later. Your great grandma was such a wonderful, God-fearing woman. She had the most tender and loving heart. It pained me to see her battle the cancer that was taking her life. She was the first person I ever saw go through something like that...and I pray it's my last. I'm looking forward to the day Jesus comes back and swallows all the sin up in this world. Please give your great grandma a great big hug and kiss for me. Tell her that she is so dearly missed by me...and us all.
I'm jealous of you and all the heavenly angels surrounding the throne tonight. I'm looking forward to the day when I'm called home... and I can join you at last.
I love you, pretty girl!
