I Picture You (for Eden)

I picture you as a little girl,

hair so soft with a tiny curl;

Reaching out to embrace the world –

That’s how I think of you.


I picture you on your toddler feet,

chubby arms and a smile so sweet;

Running around on a golden street –

That’s how I think of you.


I picture you with the ones I miss,

who’ve gone ahead into Heaven’s bliss;

It brings me joy to imagine this –

That’s how I think of you.


I picture you in the Savior’s arms,

safely secure from any harm;

Living a life where there’s no alarm –

That’s how I think of you.


I picture you as a child grown,

waiting for me in my eternal home;

Finally together in Heaven to roam –

That’s how I think of you!
