In my heart I treasure words of love beyond all measure:
"Love you to the moon and back! " I'm told –
Oh, laughing words of pure delight …
Valued, precious hugs, worth more than gold …
Each day a gift, from morn till night.
Yet, I know that as my time draws near,
Over yonder I must surely go …
Up to my Father, so kind and dear,
To meet the One I long to know –
Our Lord, watching o’er me here below.
Thankful for times with family –
He's gifted a child-rich life to me …
Each day I'm moved by the love I see.
Make the most of each hour, I say …
Occasions are precious, share time with each,
Or speak about His grace, or pray,
No one’s too far for love to reach!
And as I see my loved ones grow,
Noting how fast my days will pass –
Deep joy with them makes my face glow.
But I, one day, will fade like grass
And time and life I soon will lack …
Children, know I love you just as He does –
Kids, I love you to the moon and back!
