From my father:
Face to Face with Christ, my Savior (an old hymn)
- Face to face with Christ, my Savior,
Face to face—what will it be?
When with rapture I behold Him,
Jesus Christ who died for me.- Face to face I shall behold Him,
Far beyond the starry sky;
Face to face in all His glory,
I shall see Him by and by!
- Face to face I shall behold Him,
- Only faintly now, I see Him,
With the darkling veil between,
But a blessed day is coming,
When His glory shall be seen. - What rejoicing in His presence,
When are banished grief and pain;
When the crooked ways are straightened,
And the dark things shall be plain. - Face to face! O blissful moment!
Face to face—to see and know;
Face to face with my Redeemer,
Jesus Christ who loves me so.Source: http://www.hymnal.net/hymn.php/h/963#ixzz23ulOgqOV
From my husband: (pictures from Valentina’s birth – first breath, and first hugs……(see her little tongue?) & A song called Wake by East/West
Wake by East West
And now I see the end
And everything is gone
As I begin to move
As I begin to see
And all I want to do
Is be in here with you
And all I want from you
Is to see your face
You will wake me
And now I see this life
As it begins to shine
And I begin to see
Just what’s inside of me
Now I wait here broken
Waiting to see you
Eyes wide open
