Miguel Carlos

When tears would fall and I felt low

You'd sit beside me, you wouldn't let me go

You’d softly ask me, "Are you okay?"

And check if I had eaten anything that day

Miguel Carlos, you have such a patient heart

A caring spirit that sets you apart

In your quiet kindness, so gentle and mild

I see the goodness of God in my child.

I always wanted a son, and God gave me you

I love you more than words could ever say or do

I pray the Lord protects you and keeps you safe from harm

Holding you forever in our Savior's arms

I pray to see His perfect will in all you pursue

I always wanted a son, and God gave me you.

We share our McDonald's and laugh out loud

Playing our video games, you make me so proud

You send funny videos just to see me smile

We sit by the TV and are silly for a while

It's in these simple moments, so bright and so true

I see the loving soul that God put inside of you.

I always wanted a son, and God gave me you

I love you more than words could ever say or do

I pray the Lord protects you and keeps you safe from harm

Holding you forever in our Savior's arms

I pray to see His perfect will in all you pursue

I always wanted a son, and God gave me you.

I look to the future, I look to the Lord

For the beautiful life that you're moving toward

My greatest dream is to see you one day

Standing in church, letting grace lead the way

Worshipping our Savior, your hands lifted high

Praising the Lord of the earth and the sky.

I always wanted a son, and God gave me you

I love you more than words could ever say or do

I pray the Lord protects you and keeps you safe from harm

Holding you forever in our Savior's arms

May His light guide your steps your whole life through

Miguel Carlos, my son, God gave me you.
