We’ve been working on the house making a room just for you.

We want everything to be just right – a sky on the ceiling

So you’ll always have the light.

We’ve painted and cleaned and thanked the Lord for you.

Everything is ready now, our prayers are finally coming true.



(Chorus 1) We decorated the tree and hung a special ornament for you 'about-to-be'.

It’s the happiest of times for us. We can’t wait to meet you,

Hold your hand, touch your face.

You’re a special little one, you’re our little Angel.

The time is getting near, my Dear, for you to finally meet us.

Ours are the voices you’ve been hearing for so long

As we spoke to you, Mommy sang to you, and we read you lullabies.

We are so filled with joy and can’t wait to soothe your cries.

I hope we make good parents and do nothing wrong.



(Chorus 1)We decorated the tree and hung a special ornament for you 'about-to-be'.

It’s the happiest of times for us. We can’t wait to meet you,

Hold your hand, touch your face.

You’re a special little one, you’re our little Angel.

You never saw our faces, we never dried your little tears.

We only got to hold you once, only to have to let you go.

You’ll never know, my son, how much we love you

And how we miss you so.

This isn’t the way it’s supposed to go……



(Chorus 2)We decorated the tree and hung a special ornament in your memory.

It's the saddest of times for us. We couldn't wait to meet you,

But now that'll have to wait.

We had no idea you would really be ... our little Angel.



We think about you all the time.

Visit your little grave, look at your picture.

Who knew you’d really have it when we wanted the sky for you.

We’ve been working on the house, but not the room made just for you.

You are with us every day, we know…

But it’s hard, Son, oh, so hard, Son,

To know, you’ll always be our little Angel.



(Chorus2) We decorated the tree and hung a special ornament in your memory.

It’s the saddest of times for us. We couldn’t wait to meet you,

But now that’ll have to wait.

We had no idea you’d really be…our little Angel.
