Luke's Honoration Service


 
by Sarah and Joe

Please join us as we honor Luke's life on Saturday, January 9th at 3:30pm at Village Presbyterian Church (located at 67th and Mission Road), map.  This will be a public service that is open to anyone who wishes to join us as we honor our precious son.  There will also be a low-key social time in Friendship Hall following the service where some of Luke's favorite cookies and cupcakes will be served.  We would love to see you there and wish to thank you for loving us and our son through this season.

  1. When I was sixteen years old, my mom gave birth to my stillborn brother, Hunter John. One of the people who sent their condolences enclosed a tape of the song "Jesus Has a Rocking Chair". I pray that it helps you and your husband through this season. YouTube can help you put music to the lyrics.

    Jesus Has a Rocking Chair

    Sung by The Greenes

    From the album “The Greenes”

    Many hopeful moms and dads
    Try to have a child of their own
    Some will never get the chance
    Others do and see them grown
    And there are those who are expecting
    That precious baby soon
    But then it's gone before it ever leaves
    The safety of it's momma's womb

    Jesus has a rocking chair
    And He holds that precious baby
    With oh, such tender care
    He takes the place of mom and dad
    He's the greatest parent a child could have
    Don't worry 'bout the children there
    Jesus has a rocking chair

    There are those who have a boy or girl
    A lovely gift of God
    But then sickness or a tragedy
    Takes them from their parent's arms
    Momma's wish for days gone by
    Daddy's long for that lost child
    But the children are not lost
    When you know where they are

    She was eighteen and unmarried
    Expecting her little one
    But in her time of confusion
    She took the life of her son
    Since then Jesus forgave her
    And took all her shame away
    Still she cries missing her baby
    But she hears the angels say

    Jesus has a rocking chair
    And He holds that precious baby
    With oh, such tender care
    He takes the place of mom and dad
    He's the greatest parent a child could have
    Don't worry 'bout the children there
    Jesus has a rocking chair
