Lord, You know we struggle
Watching them as they sleep
These children You have given us
Oh yes, they are Yours to keep

This evil world awaits them
And temptation is everywhere
We reach out to hold them
Hearts scream, "Don't you dare!"

But, Satan is so patient
In their hand, he'll place a gun
This urgency to protect them
Belongs to God, Your Son

Wishing we were always there
So to them, we give Your Word
On our knees, we cry to You
And pray our child has heard

Still, the reality of life is clear
When tender hearts feel pain
Then children hurt each other
As the world has gone insane

A life that came to Jesus
Can be suddenly ripped away
If Satan put a gun in their hand
What would your child say

For if a child is broken
With a heart that is torn
We will trust in Jesus Christ
As we did when they were born

Lord, You know we struggle
But, You take on the fight
When we have to let them go
They are always in Your sight.
