Favorite Song

I wanted to add this to the playlist but they don't have it available. I know I am overdue for an update and I will do that in the next few days but I really wanted this on the blog. This song as touched me so much over the last little while. It was written by a father whose son was going through cancer. If you get a chance please listen to it. Its called He's My Son by Dallyn Vail Bayles , but her are the lyrics.

Down on my knees again tonight,
I'm hopin' this prayer will turn out right,
See there is a boy that needs your help,
I've done all that I can do myself,
His mother is tired,
I'm sure you can understand,
Each night as he sleeps,
She goes in to hold his hand,
And she tries, not to cry,
As the tears fill her eyes.

Can you hear me?
Am I getting through tonight?
Can you see him?
Can you make him feel alright?
If you can hear me,
Let me take his place somehow,
See he's not just anyone, he's my son.

Sometime late at night I watch him sleep,
I dream of the boy he'd like to be,
I try to be strong and see him through,
But God who he needs right now is you.
Let him grow old,
Live life without this fear,
What would I be,
Living without him here?
He's so tired,
And he's scared,
Let him know,
That you are there.

Can you hear me?
Am I getting through tonight?
Can you see him?
Can you make him feel alright?
If you can hear me,
Let me take his place somehow,
See he's not just anyone, he's my son.

Can you hear me?
Please don't leave him,
He's my son.
