Bow Your Head

Bow your head, and say a prayer,

A child has died today...

No loss or pain can match the

price, these parents now must pay.

Heartache, sorrow, tears and

grief, replace the smiles and joy.

That once were shared by those

who loved,

This wonderful girl or boy.

Bow your head and say a prayer,

a child has died today...

A life of hopes and dreams is lost

in a future gone astray.

Reach out to touch, to hug, to hold

the ones who now must tread,

A path so lonely, long and dark,

Their precious child is dead.

Bow your head and say a prayer,

a child has died today...

A year ago, that child was mine,

and I miss him more each day.
