Josiah's Song - Lyrics

Our friend Greg Harris wrote a song for Josiah over a year ago. For Josiah's memorial, Greg updated a few of the lyrics. This version of the song can be found below.

JOSIAH'S SONG

Little boy , so sweet , so small and so strong
You taught us how to live, to love and hold on.
Little boy , you fought so hard and came so far
And you taught us what strength and courage really are.

Through the tears of joy and pain , You kept fighting
Through the fears and doubts and strains , You kept fighting
Now you’re home our beautiful son , Now you’re home our beautiful son, Because He has Saved
When we think of these past years, and all that you’ve done, we can almost hear you say…

Daddy when you held me in your arms, I was home
Mommy when you held me close, I was home
Daddy when I heard you laugh, it cut right through my fears
Mommy when I heard you cry, I tried to dry your tears
And I kept fighting, I kept fighting, But now there’s no more fighting
Because He has saved me

Little boy , there is so much of life , you didn’t see
But in the arms of Christ, now you’re free…
