My Jonathan

Nadine Marguerite Bock

My Jonathan
Laughed in my arms, sweet breath on my neck
My Jonathan
Gift from God, delivered by angels
My Jonathan
Filled with joy from God, eyes never speaking
My Jonathan
A reason to live, a reason to die
Family on earth, family in Heaven
My Jonathan
Never alone, never forsaken, favored by God
My Jonathan
Sings with the angels, walks with His Lord
My Jonathan
Sits in the grandstands, cheers for the race
Awaits for the finish, the chosen saints
My Jonathan
Will laugh in my arms,sweet breath on my neck
My Jonathan
