Lyrics
(Verse 1)You were there when I was young, all of my first years, but when i moved away, how I wished you were here, Special days I would hear from you, always got your cards. Every time you would tell me of that special place in your heart. (Chorus) You asked Jesus to watch over me, through all of my years. You asked Jesus to watch over me,
through my laughter and my tears. Every night when you'd go to bed, pray this in the dark, you would pray that you would ive to see me ask Jesus in my heart. (Verse 2) In the times we didn't talk, I was in your prayers. Every night you would mention me to the father upstairs. It was how you showed your love, though you couldn't see me.
Through all of your prayers and all your love, you hoped Jesus would set me free. (Verse 3) Now your gone and I am a man. If you could see me now. All grown up and out on my own, even said my vows. You were able to go in peace, since in my heart Jesus I've found, knowing one day soon we'll be together when the trumpet sounds.
