Waiting for a Baby

Last night, in my childbirth class, a mother shared about two dear friends who wanted to have a baby -- and waited for eight years until it finally happened. They wrote a song about their experience, which they have shared with the world. These are the words to "Beautiful Things":


All this pain
I wonder if I’ll ever find my way
I wonder if my life could really change at all
All this earth
Could all that is lost ever be found
Could a garden come up from this ground at all
 
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
 
All around
Hope is springing up from this old ground
Out of chaos life is being found in You
 
You make me new, You are making me new
