Remember Me

Last night when I was at the Y working out, I was listening to my ipod, listening to songs of worship and praying for baby Jack and the song "Remember Me" by Mark Schultz came on. My eyes immediately filled with tears. Rachel and I sang this song at Joe and Missy's wedding. Here are the lyrics....

Remember Me In a Bible cracked and faded by the years.
Remember Me In a sanctuary filled with silent prayer

And age to age And heart to heart,
Bound by grace and peace.
Child of wonder, Child of God,
I've remembered you, Remember Me.
Remember Me

When the color of the sunset fills the sky
Remember Me When you pray and tears of joy fall from your eyes.

And age to age And heart to heart,
Bound by grace and peace.
Child of wonder Child of God,
I've remembered you,
Remember Me

Remember Me When the children leave their Sunday school with smiles
Remember Me When they're old enough to teach, Old enough to preach Old
enough to leave.

And age to age And heart to heart
Bound by grace and peace
Child of wonder, Child of God,
I've remembered you, Remember Me.

Age to age
And heart to heart
Child of wonder
Child of God
Remember Me

Sweet Jesus, You know this baby, You have designed him from the inside out. This child of wonder, child of God, he is Yours. You know the number of his days and You have planned them perfectly for Your glory. Lord I pray that Your Spirit would abound in Jackson, strengthening him and building up his lungs, building up his strength. Lord I pray for Your hand of healing in his little body. I pray for Joe and Missy that their hearts would grow more in love with You and that they would remember You constantly, thinking about Your goodness, worshiping You in Your complete sovereignty, trusting You deeply. I pray that they would hold their son loosely, knowing that Your arms are around him. I pray that you would give them strength to live with the unknowns of the future and the comfort to sit and wait. Lord I pray that you would fill Jackson with good oxygen and that his levels would be where they need to be. I pray for miracles. That You would shower grace upon them and that You would give this baby new life. Lord, I pray that Joe and Miss would continue to give You glory beyond glory, that You would use their lives and Jack's life to reach the nations for You. These are Your children and You love them deeply, I pray that they would feel and know the depths of Your love for them through this. In all these things I pray in Your name and for Your glory. AMEN!
