Help me to remember, God
that arms now strong and muscular at one time cuddled me.
Help me to remember, God, when he says it’s me who’s wrong
his breath once tickled on my neck as I sang him a song.
Help me to remember, God, when we don’t see eye to eye
before he used to fall asleep he’d kiss me then he’d sigh.
Help me to remember, God, when I see a man in him
a little boy once filled his shoes, ‘twas I who buckled them.
Help me to remember, God, though when he’s on his own
how small he may have started out, but Oh how much he’s grown!
