Fragile Hearts

I look down from my higher ground into eyes filled with wonder.
Daddy what's that awful sound and why did God make thunder ?
I hold tight to little hands that tremble in the darkness.
One day son you'll understand and this would be my one request.

Be careful not to break in two, don't make the same mistake that some do.
We all must do our part to guard their fragile hearts.
Believe in what they may become, encourage them to follow the sun.
For we all must do our part to guard their fragile hearts.

All around our resting feet in circles now she dances
In mommys dress don't I look sweet with child like faith she asks us ?
What makes all these babies grow, and is grampa still in heaven ?
I really just don't know who could ever hurt one of these little children.
