Two Sons
A beautiful blonde boy, playing on the swings
He smiles and waves and points
to show his mommy special things.
He doesn't notice the tears lying on his mommy's cheeks,
Or feel the pain inside her heart,
too deep for her to speak And she thinks,
Oh what a beautiful baby. Oh, what a beautiful boy.
Thank you for him Jesus, you know he's my greatest joy.
And please don't think me selfish,
because I cannot stop the tears,
You see, I have two sons Lord,
and the other one's just as dear.
She calls that playtime's over, and that they have to go
His little mouth forms a pout and he quickly yells out, "no!"
He squeals and starts to run, and she plays the game with him
And all the time her heart is crying and thinking, deep within,
Oh what a beautiful baby. Oh, what a beautiful boy.
Thank you for him Jesus, you know he's my greatest joy.
And please don't think me selfish,
because I cannot stop the tears,
You see, I have two sons Lord,
and the other one's just as dear.
She longs to see two tousled heads
in the morning when she wakes,
She longs to hold them both in her arms
when they have their birthday cakes
She longs to tell all the passers-by
that stop to admire her son
Oh yes, he's a very precious child,
but he's not the only one.
Oh what a beautiful baby. Oh, what a beautiful boy.
Thank you for him Jesus, you know he's my greatest joy.
And please don't think me selfish,
because I cannot stop the tears,
You see, I have two sons Lord,
and the other one's just as dear.
She couldn't love him any more,
or her heart would burst into.
But she lives her life in constant fear
that he will leave her too.
And she thinks to herself as she goes on
and deals with this long day
I'd give anything to see him kiss his baby brother,
or watch them play.
Oh what a beautiful baby. Oh, what a beautiful boy.
Thank you for him Jesus, you know he's my greatest joy.
And please don't think me selfish,
because I cannot stop the tears,
You see, I have two sons Lord,
and the other one's just as dear.
