Little boy, all alone,
with nobody to call his own.
A family waits a world away,
the months drag by, long day by day.
The pictures show up now and then.
The family wonders time and again.
Who dries his tears, who holds him tight,
you tucks him into bed at night?
Who reads him books, who sings him songs,
and comforts him when something's wrong?
The little boy he does not know,
this family who loves him so.
Their love so strong, their faith so deep,
safe in their hearts, this boy they keep.
A brother and a son to be,
they wait and wait so patiently.
And then one day the stars align,
they pack their bags, it's finally time!
The journey begun so long ago
is almost done, it's time to go!
Hold on, sweet boy, here they come,
your days alone are almost done.
Welcome Jacob, to this family who,
surely was chosen by God just for you.
You're right where you were meant to be,
alone no more,
you complete this family.
