In this video, before Karen and Stowe sing the song, Karen tells the story of how she came to write this song specifically for the 2008 TCF National Convention in Nashville, TN.
In my dreams, you are alive and well
Precious child, precious child
In my mind, I see you clear as a bell
Precious child, my precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart, there is hope
And you are with me still
In my heart, you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Though it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever, in my heart
In my plans, I was the first to leave
Precious child, precious child
But in this world, I was left here to grieve
Precious child, my precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
In my heart, there is hope
And you are with me still
In my heart, you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Though it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever, in my heart
God knows I want to see you, touch you, feel you
And I knoe there's a heaven
And someday I will again
Please know, you are not forgotten
Until then
In my heart, you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Though it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever, in my heart
