Jacob

Jacob, you've got a heart that's rare to find

So caring and so thoughtful, so gentle and so kind

You always put the others first, I see it in your smile

I love it when you sit with me and stay a little while

I may not always be right here to help you through the storm

To wrap my arms around you and keep you safe and warm

But every single memory is anchored in my mind

You're the greatest gift that I could ever leave behind

Just know that wherever you go, long after I am gone

My love for you, Jacob, will always carry on

Any time I get to spend with you just makes my day

The heavy clouds just disappear, the shadows fade away

You always show such tenderness in everything you do

I'm so incredibly proud to have a grandson just like you

I may not always be right here to help you through the storm

To wrap my arms around you and keep you safe and warm

But every single memory is anchored in my mind

You're the greatest gift that I could ever leave behind

Just know that wherever you go, long after I am gone

My love for you, Jacob, will always carry on

Time is just a highway, and it only moves one way

But the bond we share together is never gonna fade

So keep that loving spirit, keep your compass true

There will never be a moment I'm not loving you

I may not always be right here to help you through the storm

To wrap my arms around you and keep you safe and warm

But every single memory is anchored in my mind

You're the greatest gift that I could ever leave behind

Just know that wherever you go, long after I am gone

My love for you, Jacob, will always carry on
