GLIMPSE OF HEAVEN
Words: Brock Thornsbrough
Music: Brent Wilson
c. 2004
A prayer from a longing heart
Reached to the Father above
A request for a miracle
Granted from God's great love
We've waited for so long
To hold you to our Chest
Through many losses and gains
God's now given us his best
Chorus:
He sent a little glimpse of Heaven in you
He sent a little glimpse of Heaven in you
You're a gentle reminder of the great things God can do
He sent a little glimpse of Heaven in you
The pureness of your cry
Is music to our ears
Just one look into your eyes
Makes us forget all our fears.
'cause God sent us his love
When He granted our prayer
He placed you in our arms
And put you in our care

How beautiful!!!!
Thanks for these last two posts. I would love to hear a recording of Brock singing that song. Is it possible for you to put a link to it somehow?
Jill,
There isn't a link to it from anywhere that I know of, but it's recorded by Brock on Homeward Bound's last CD. He added another verse to it for her wedding day the year they put it on the CD. There's also a song on the CD called "I'll Hold You In Heaven" that Brock, Amie and I wrote about our babies in heaven in 2004. I bet your dad has the CD. I'm pretty sure Teresa does. If not, let me know. I can get it, I'm sure. Have your tissues handy. I listened to it and cried EVERY day of my pregnancy with Lauren (Little Glimpse) and then Paul and I played it for her in my hospital room after everyone went home the night she was born. It's VERY special to me. (and now to her as she knows it's "her" song)
I won't link to your page..but I would really like to. I so love this song and had almost forgotten it. I am glad you reminded me!
