Come and Sit With Me Awhile by Kathleen Higham Come and sit with me awhile Why could I not be still? Just a sweet, tender request Sometimes I failed to fulfill. Come and sit with me awhile For I may not always be here Needing a little time from you Time we will both hold dear. Come and sit with me awhile Before my time is gone When tears will bring you to me In the hours before the dawn. Come and sit with me awhile We don't even have to talk Just come, just come, my child We'll take a quiet walk. Come and sit with me awhile So quickly comes tomorrow I pray for your presence A moment I might borrow. Come and sit with me awhile Only one can love you more My God, your God, our God He waits at Heaven's door. Come and sit with me awhile For with Him I will leave It may be unexpectedly Your heart will not conceive. Come and sit with me awhile Remembering my Mother's voice Come and sit with me awhile Someday there will be no choice. Come and sit with me awhile Warm eyes will tenderly greet A Mother's heart will touch you When together we shall meet. Come and sit with me awhile I can feel my Mother's smile She waits patiently in Heaven Saying, "Come and sit with me awhile." |
