I Will Carry You

There were photographs I wanted to take.
Things I wanted to show you
Sing sweet lullabies
Wipe your teary eyes
Who could love you like this

People say that I am brave but I'm not,  

Truth is I'm barely hangin' on,  

There's a greater story

  Written long before me, 
Because He loves you like this. 

I will carry you,  

While your heart beats here,  

Long beyond the empty cradle,  

Through the coming years,  

I will carry you,  

All my life,  

I will praise the One,  

Who's chosen me

to carry you, 

  

 Such a short time,  

Such a long road,  

All this madness,  

But I know, 

 That the silence, 

 Has brought me to His voice, 

 And He said, 

 

"I've shown her photographs of time beginning,  

Walked her through the parted sea, 
 Angel lullabies
No more teary eyes, 

Who could love her like this" 

I will carry you,  

While your heart beats here,  

Long beyond the empty cradle,  

Through the coming years, 

I will carry you, 

 All your life, 

 I will praise the One, 

 Who's chosen me,  

To carry you.
