I absolutely love this song - "Hold on to Jesus" - from the cd SING OVER ME. I've always loved this song but it sure means so so much more to me now! I pray it over Reese every time we listen to it and it truly brings me to tears each time... it's just so hard to truly let go of my precious daughter and give her over to the Lord and let him take care of her. (and I know it will only get harder as she grows up) ... My favorite verse is the last one which says "Hear me dear Jesus, rock this little one to sleep. Keep her close when she's scared and give her grace when she is weak. I know she'll stumble but I know she'll make it through if you hold to her just like you said You'd do. Hold her Jesus and she'll hold on tight to You."
HOLD ON TO JESUS
You're a little piece of heaven
You're a golden ray of light
And I wish I could protect you
From the worries of this life
But if there's one thing I could tell you
It's no matter what you do
Hold to Jesus
He's holding on to you
The world will try to tell you
That might is more than right
That beauty's on the outside
And being good's a losing fight
But remember what I've told you
Because the world will make you choose
Hold to Jesus
He's holding on to you
Hold on to Jesus
Cling to His love
Rest deep in His mercy
Whenever things get rough
Don't lose sight of His goodness
And don't ever doubt this truth
That when you hold on to Jesus
He's holding on to you
Hear me dear Jesus
Rock this little one to sleep
Keep her close when she's scared
And give her grace when she is weak
I know she'll stumble
But I know she'll make it through
If you hold to her just like
You said You'd do
Hold her Jesus
And she'll hold on tight to You

Love that cd!!! It brings back so many memories of when Will was a baby and singing to him along with the cd. I haven't played it for Reed yet...but now I think I need to! What a sweet mommy you are!! :)
You are such a good mommy! Turn little Reese over and rest knowing God loves her even more than you do:) She is in the best hands! I love you!
oh my gosh....I love that cd but every song makes me cry especially that one. I was always and emotional person but having a baby really brings on the tears. It is so hard to be able and let go of control of my kids. I have to trust that where ever they go in life that God is watching over them.
