~Two Broken Hearts in Heaven Will Greet~

 
 
  Where is my Darlin' Girl tonight,
I hope she's doin' al'right.
I have not seen her since her birth,
I gave her to those of worth.
As years have passed I love her more,
Her father I deplore.
A wealthy son of a prominant man;
But she never knew his clan.

We both were young and did a wrong,
But my baby in life would belong.
I didn't tell him what he had done,
for he'd only deny and run.
Our family pride was all at stake,
I'd give her a clean break.
No scarlet child with a hideous mark,
In life would she embark.

 

The last I heard she was to go,
--The Word of God to sow.
Across the sea to Swaziland,
without the sinners brand.
She thought her Mother died THAT DAY
without giving her Father away.
The time will come when we'll meet,
Two broken hearts in Heaven will greet.

In Honor of Mothers
who refused to have an abortion
in order to protect the family name.

Jim's Note:

"Two Broken Hearts in Heaven Will Greet"
is a tragic love story.
 
Years ago,
many young Mothers hated to give up their new babies.
This story touches in part many American families.
 
HAPPY VALENTINE
to those who have the opportuniity to know your family,
and God's special blessings
to those with broken hearts
who will greet your family in Heaven.

  Love to all,
Jim Henderson

Bev's Note:


As our world is increasingly a place of fear

it seems SO IMPORTANT

that we concentrate on the things that give life meaning. . .

those things that are the opposite of fear.  

This sweet painting of a sleeping baby,

safe in the comfort of the watching Angel. . .

a little heart full of joy and peace

surrounded in calm regardless of the storm

that may be raging 'outside' the room,

that is the prayer my heart has.

Happy Holidays and a Blessed & Peace Filled 2003
