I Give You To His Heart

The wind is blowing down the quiet river

A shining road to carry you along

Oh baby boy, my love will last forever

If you're to live, I must give you up to God

I know our God will guide, protect and keep you

Teach you faith and hold you by the heart

Though your mother's heart is broken by your leaving

Our Father knows just who He is and who you are

I wish that life wasn't always ending up this way

With Heaven's love at stake and hell to pay

But you in God's loving plan might be the missing part

You must live, so I give you to His heart

The wind, it blows you down the silent river

A shining road that leaves me all alone

A life for you is worth losing you forever

Someday we'll stand in God's fair land forever home

I wish that life wasn't always ending up this way

With Heaven's love at stake and hell to pay

But you, in God's loving plan, might be the missing part

You must live, so I give you to His heart

I wish that life wasn't always ending up this way

With Heaven's love at stake and hell to pay

But you, in God's loving plan, might be the missing part

You must live, so I give you to His heart
