Precious


Something Precious I have lost
But, I can not estimate the cost

Any Price, I would have paid
To have the loss of it delayed

It wasn’t really mine to own
But, Not having cuts me to the bone

Strong hands,strong heart ,strong will, you see
Could not keep it close to me

The Precious Life of one so young
Is the Greatest loss for Anyone

Something Precious we have lost
But, who could estimate the cost

Any price, we would have paid
To have the loss of it delayed

It wasn’t really ours to own
But, Not having cuts us to the bone

Faith and Hope and Love and Trust
Could not keep it close to us

The Precious life of one so young
Is the the Greatest loss for Everyone

Something Precious has been lost
No one can calculate the cost

Any Price, we’d gladly pay
To let him take back just one day

A Life is something no one owns
A Body -- Only Flesh and Bones

The Physical is what we see
But there is more to you and me

Life is Precious to old and young
Our Spiritual Journey, just begun
