Tonight this song came back to me that the Gaithers used to sing called: "We Have This Moment." You don't realize how much you take a simple thing like tucking your children into bed and kissing them goodnight means until you're not able to.
I looked on youtube and there is one video of the song (audio's not great), but embedding in another page is not allowed. But if you wish to hear it, here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgzjPfPyiZs
We Have This Moment
by Bill and Gloria Gaither
Verse 1
Hold tight to the sound of the music of living
Happy sounds from the laughter of children at play
Hold my hand as we walk through the sweet fragrant meadows
Making memories of what was today
(Chorus)
We have this moment to hold in our hands
And to touch as it slips through our fingers like sand
Yesterday's gone and tomorrow may never come
But we have this moment, today
Verse 2
Tiny voice that I hear is my little girl calling
For daddy to hear just what she has to say
My little boy running there by the hillside
May never be quite like today
(Chorus)
We have this moment to hold in our hands
And to touch as it slips through our fingers like sand
Yesterday's gone and tomorrow may never come
But we have this moment, today
Verse 3
Tender words gentle touch and a good cup of coffee
And someone who loves me and wants me to stay
Hold them dear while they’re near don’t wait for tomorrow
To look back and wish for today
(Chorus)
We have this moment to hold in our hands
And to touch as it slips through our fingers like sand
Yesterday's gone and tomorrow may never come
But we have this moment, today
Verse 4
Take the blue of the sky and green of the forest
And the gold and brown of the freshly mown hay
Add the pales shades of spring and the circus of autumn
And review a lovely today
(Chorus)
We have this moment to hold in our hands
And to touch as it slips through our fingers like sand
Yesterday's gone and tomorrow may never come
But we have this moment, today
