Where is my baby sister-- my small son asked of me,
I went into her room to play-- but she's not there I see,
Did daddy take her with him-- to fly up in the plane,
Or is she playing hide and seek or playing on her train.
I tried to choke back all the hurt--
I tried to dry my eyes--
I tried to figure out just how--
To tell him of her goodbye.
I told him "Come sit with me--
For I have something to say--
I must tell you of the story--
Of how she went away."
Do you remember last week-- when we took her to the doctor--
And he told us there was nothing he could do--
Do you remember how we prayed around her bed each night--
Well Jenny was so sick- she didn't have the strength to fight.
So while you were sleeping late last night--
Jenny tried her best but couldn't fight--
She closed her little eyes and then--
Took one last breath--which was the end.
She was such a beautiful baby--
And although she isn't here--
We will keep her close to us--
With every passing year.
Daddy had to take her-- to see some other men--
And they are making plans for her a bed--
Because we want a special place where we can visit her--
And this is what my little son had said--
"I want to kiss her one more time--
I want to hold her hand--
I want to pick some flowers--
Do you think I can?"
Do you think she'll remember me--
Since she has gone with God--
Will she know that I'm her brother--
Will He tell her she is loved.
She has gone to a place in Heaven--
Where she will never be in pain--
She has gone to a place of love--
Yes, she will remember your name.
There is no better place to go to--
When you are breathing your last breath--
Then to see the Angels coming--
And to know you will finally rest.
So Jenny is an Angel--
And Heaven is now her Home--
And one day soon we'll see her--
Whenever we're called Home.
