I remember when you took your first step, and then you fell on the ground.
I taught you to tie your shoes. I remember that.
But, now that I see you there for the last time,
I wonder did I forget. Did I remember to tell you…?
I remember when you first drank water from a cup, and then spilled most of it on your shirt.
I taught you to eat with a spoon and not your hands. I remember that.
I remember when I taught you to dress yourself.
I taught you to comb your hair. Yes, I remember that!
I remember when you opened your first bank account.
I taught you to count. I remember that.
I remember teaching you to ride a bike.
I taught you to drive. I remember that.
I remember teaching you to say “Thank You” and “Please.”
I told you that I love you. Yes, I remember that!
But, now that I see you there for the last time,
I wonder did I forget. Did I remember to tell you…?
And as the pastor stands, now I remember…
My tears flow because I will miss you, but the tears have turned to sobbing,
As I see you there for the last time, and I wonder did I forget…
Did I remember to tell you that Jesus loves you…? Did I tell you how He died for you?
Did I teach you to pray to Him and that He rescues and He saves?
I taught you to tie your shoes. I remember that.
But, now that I see you there for the last time,
I wonder did I forget… Did I remember to tell you that?
“…God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16
“…the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” John 14:26
