To My Grandson - Mikhail Bennett
Sleep, little one
Oh, I can't wait to nest
Grandpa's arms will keep you right
Till morning birds it's light
You don't know the roads I've walked
The tears these eyes have known
But when I hold you close like this
I don't feel so alone
Your daddy once was just like you
A little hand in mine
Back when life still made some sense
I never think felt fine
Then your grandmother went to heaven
And I lost more than I could bear
I tried to hide my broken heart
But darkness found me there
I reached for bottles instead of God
And pushed away the ones I loved
Your daddy couldn't watch me fall
So one day he gave up
So sleep, my little grandson
Safe beneath God's grace
You don't know how much he lives
Inside your face
Because the Lord who never left me
When I lost my way
Sent a little piece of mercy
Into my today
The years went by like winter winds
Quiet, cold and long
I prayed for things I'd broken and begged God to make me strong
And one day your daddy came back
With tears inside his eyes
He said,"Dad, let's leave the past behind."
And I broke down and cried
And he placed you in my arms
And son, I'll never forget
How God answered years of prayers in a moment I hadn't met
Sleep, my little grandson
Dream beneath God's light
The same Lord who carried Grandpa
Will hold your hands tonight
And if one day life breaks your heart
As life sometimes can do
Remember God can rebuild anything
He rebuilt me through you
One day you'll hear the stories
About mistakes I've made
How I lost myself in sorrow
After your grandma passed away
But I hope you'll also hear this
God's mercy never ends
Sometimes he sends a grandchild
To bring a family whole again
Sleep, my little grandson
While Grandpa watches you
The greatest gift God gave me
Was something new
It was a second chance at family
A second chance at love
Wrapped inside two tiny hands
Sent from heaven above
And when I'm gone, remember this
Before my life was through
God healed an old man's broken heart
Through you
