Story behind the song
I am inspired that God's promises are handed down from generation to generation to the end of time. He conceived us long before our actual conception!
Lyrics
When you were but a twinkle there, in your Daddy’s eye,
I carried you from yonder fair, in your Mother’s arms to lie.
O’ babe so sweet, so gentle there - among the stars in the sky;
I touched your life and made it mine, upon your very first cry.
(CHORUS)
So don’t you fret my little one - I hold your life in my hands.
Why worry dear, for I am here - in near or distant lands.
And when you have babes of your own, and in your arms they lie,
Know that they still belong to me, just as the earth and sky.
And when they’re grown up with their own - I’ll still be standing by;
My promises they never fail, from generations gone by.
And as your life comes to an end, upon this dying earth,
You’ll still be mine, for I have called you to my bosom first.
O’ yes my dear, have no fear - for I the Lord am yours;
And you are mine, forever mine, before your very birth.
