Dear Son
Written by Thena Smith
When you feel a gentle tugging
Like someone is nudging
At your heart...
When you think you hear a whisper
But you can't quite make it out
And those around you don't whisper
They are more likely to shout...
When you are in a bit of trouble
And you need a helping hand
Or your legs are feeling wobbly
And it's difficult to stand...
Or if you are just plain lonely
And missing those at home
Just remember dearest son...
You will never be alone!
Just ask the Lord to tell me
If you need me to pray
I'll be listening for His voice
Be it dark of night or brightest day.
Just ask the Lord to lead me
If there's something that you need
And I'll be there in spirit
To pray and intercede.
And if others 'round you are fearful
Don't be put off by what they're saying
Just tell them ''Don't be afraid...
I know my Mother's praying!''
