Not now when life is good.
Don’t take him away from me
I’d accept this if I could.
My heart aches endlessly
And tears fill my eyes
Don’t take him away from me
I can’t bear to say good bye!
I’m scared, no, I’m terrified
Of missing him each day
Don’t take him away from me
I hate feeling this way.
It is the right thing to do
I’m sure it’s part of Your plan
But don’t take him from me
Can you see I need this man?
If you must take him from me
Please surround me with love
Hold me gently in Your hands
And guide me from above.
Hear my cries, oh precious Lord
I will resolutely honor thee
It is right; take him away
Though, soon return him to me.
