There's a little pine box casket
In the third room down the hall
An Angel lies inside it
with her fav'rite a Barbie doll
A pretty girl once full of life,
forever five years old
mom and dad lean over her
tryin' not to lose control
(chorus)
Bless our little angel
let her fly
with open wings
Welcome her with open arms
and take all the love she brings
tell her not to worry,
we'll see her in our dreams
ev'ry night we'll hold her tight
as we drift off to sleep
It's a short drive to the graveyard
In that big black Cadillac
Mom and dad burst into tears,
they just can't hold it back
Preacher tries to ease their pain
But it only lasts awhile
He tells them "Little Sarah
would love to see them smile"
(chorus)
A while after the service
They pull into the drive
They start breakin' down again,
beggin' God to take their lives
They walk into her empty room
And drop down to their knees
Daddy cries "Lord give us strength",
Momma says "I beg you please"
(chorus) repeat
