Come

Have you forgotten? We used to have so much fun.

We spent whole days together.

Come, take My hand and let’s do things.

I want to dig in the sand and build castles with you.

 I want to lay in the warm grass and hear what you see in the clouds.

 I want to carry you on My shoulders and make you feel tall.

 I want to watch you fly a kite and see your smile stretch from ear-to-ear.

I want to hold you in My arms as we watch the sun go down at the beach.

 I want to explore a mountain together. I’ll show you what plants you can eat.

 I’ll shelter you when the rain comes.

I have some jokes to tell you, ones you’ve never heard. I want to see you laugh until you cry.

Show me what you’ve created. I’m thrilled to see you using the gifts I gave you.

Let’s run into the middle of a field of white dandelions and twirl around in circles until all the seeds blow away. Won’t that be fun?

Come with Me. I’ll show you a secret waterfall. It’s beautiful and refreshing. Swim with Me. Relax.

I know the best places to play hide-and-seek. You can hide first. Don’t worry, I’ll play fair.

I know you like strawberries. I picked some and put them in our picnic basket.

Come, eat some delicious food with Me.

After our meal, we can lay on the blanket.

You can take a nap, and I’ll sing you a love song as you rest.

Come, be with Me as we’ve done before.

You’ve forgotten how much fun we used to have.

Take My hand, let’s enjoy life together.

Here is one of my favorite songs, "Sing Over Me" by Bethany Dillon and Nichole Nordeman:
