                                                "We Need Not Walk Alone"

 

Precious Child
Written & Sung by:  Karen Taylor Goode - TCF

In my dreams
You are alive and well
Precious child, Precious child
In my mind, I see you clear as a bell
Precious child, Precious child

In my soul, There is a hole,
that can never be filled
In my heart, there is hope
cause you are with me still.

In my heart, you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious Child, You left so soon
Though it may be true that were apart
You will live forever,
in my heart.

In my plans,
I was the first to leave
Precious child, Precious child
But in this world,
I was left here to grieve,
Precious child, My precious child

In my soul, There is a hole,
that can never be filled
But in my heart, there is hope
and you are with me still

In my heart, you live on,
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Though it may be true, that were apart
You will live forever, in my heart

God knows I want to hold you,
feel you, touch you
and maybe there is a Heaven
and some day I will again
Please know your not forgotten
Until then...

In my heart, you live on
Always there, Never gone
Precious Child
You left too soon
Though it may be true, that were apart
You will live forever
in my heart!

The melody "Precious Child" was written and performed by Karen Taylor-Good in loving memory of her nephew, Paul Rodgers. First sung at the 1998 TCF National Conference in Nashville, this moving song is now available on CD or Cassette Tape from the TCF Resource Center. Perfect for memorial services, Side 1 of the Cassette Tape features Karen’s stirring vocals, while Side 2 is an instrumental version of the song. A lyric sheet is provided with each tape so that you can sing along.
