Connie Hinnen Cook - Beloved Burden lyrics

Her guardian angel loved her, Maybe even more than I; He knew that he'd be going Home When told the day she'd die. He'd been there since her time of birth, Watched o'er her day and night; His brilliant wings would shelter her, He kept her in his sight. He knew her hopes, He knew her fears; He loved her laugh, He felt her tears. He wrote down every word she spoke, And heard her every prayer; He followed every step she took, Went with her everywhere. The pain she felt before her d**h Broke his strong heart in two; It grieved him when he saw her thus And nothing he could do. But when she breathed her final breath She saw his face so dear; She knew he'd been there all her life And now there was no fear. For in his hand she'd slip her own, And with him she would fly; His ma**ive wings would safely speed To her new Home on high. With Jesus there to welcome This beloved burden...then... The angel placed her in His care Forevermore, Amen. --Connie "For He shall give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways." (Psalm 91:11 KJV)
