Our Baby’s Book Lyrics
There's a new star in heaven tonight
The brightest of them all up there
As we gaze at the sky
We wonder why
That the Lord took our baby so fair
For he was as sweet as the rose
His eyes was so big bright and blue
And it made me so glad they said he favors his dad
And my wife said: "He's the image of you"
Now you should see our baby's book
It's pink and bordered with gold
Though it's not complete
But on the first sheet
Our darling's life story is told
It tells of the days that he came
To add more joy to our home
After seven short weeks
Our Master did speak
And now Rodger Dale has gone
But I know that he's happy up there
I can vision each action and look
Friends, as you travel on
Please remember this song
For it's written in our baby's book
