- Special Friend Betsy Carter 3:53
I adore my children and was impressed by the Lord that in eternity we will take on new roles of brother and sister rather than mother and child. Yet I believe we will always be connected in a special way. And in this life I wanted to be the friend to them that leads them to Jesus. Incredibly I was blessed to be that person that lead them to Christ! If I never do anything else for Jesus, that fact is beautiful to me. I want to always be a guide and example of Jesus’ love and truth, especially to my family.
LYRICS:
In the eyes of eternity
We’re sister and brother
Though for this time and place
I’m called your loving mother
But in eternity’s eyes we’re helpers together
I would be that special friend to you
In the eyes of this world we live in
You’re my son and daughter
And for now I teach and nurture
As fits the role I’m called to
But in eternity’s eyes I’m just
A fellow traveler
I would be that special friend to you
Let me help you understand this life
Though truly I’m still learning all the time
Let me stand beside you and guide you
Protect you from all harm
And help you reach the everlasting Light
In the eyes of eternity
We’re sister and brother
And though death were to part us
I’ll always be your loving mother
And in eternity’s eyes we’re always together
I would be that special friend to you
