If I Knew
Posted on Aug 18, 2007
If I knew it would be the last time That I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep. -------------------------------------------------------- If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more. -------------------------------------------------------- If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day. --------------------------------------------------------- If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming you would KNOW I do. --------------------------------------------------------- If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day, Well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away. --------------------------------------------------------- For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything just right. --------------------------------------------------------- There will always be another day to say "I love you," And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do?" --------------------------------------------------------- But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get, I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget. --------------------------------------------------------- Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight. ---------------------------------------------------------- So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day, ---------------------------------------------------------- That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish. ---------------------------------------------------------- So hold your loved ones close today, and whisper in their ear, Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear ---------------------------------------------------------- Take time to say "I'm sorry," "Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay." And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today. ---------------------------------------------------------- Matt 1:21 You shall call his name Jesus for he shall save his people from their sins.
