Mom, He Only Took My Hand

Last night while I was trying to sleep, my son's voice I did hear,
I opened my eyes and looked around but he did not appear.
He said, Mom you've got to listen, you've got to understand 
God didn't take me from you Mom, He only took my hand. 

When I called out in pain that morning, the instant that I died,
He reached down and took my hand, and pulled me to his side.
He pulled me up and saved me from the misery and pain 
my body was hurt so badly inside, I could never be the same.

My search is really over now, I've found happiness within.
All the answers to my empty dreams and all that might have been.

I Love you so and miss you so, But I'll always be nearby
My body's gone forever, but my spirit will never die
And so you must go on now live one day at a time 
Just understand, God did not take me from you ... 

He only took my hand"
