I Held You So Close As The Bullets Rained Down,
I Never Loved You More Than Now, I Never Knew
What It Was To Love, To Tru Love, Until You Have To Be
The One Who Pulls The Weight Of Our Load, together, I am Strong
As The Bullets Rained Down I Knew We Had To Run Through The Jungle
And I Knew A Lot Of Other Things, The Things That A Mother Instinctively Knows
When She's Saving Her Little Baby's Life, My Little Boy, I am a Human Shield
I Look At Chris and see he's scared and crippled and clueless and looking to me.
I look at me and see a genius madly in love with Chris, a lamb, and I am wiser than hell.
It fills me with a feeling of responsibility; that I must Use My Mind and
Chris Will Use His HEart, Because it's his heart You're all Breaking
I am a human shield, Immune to the government's bullets
maybe that's because I went to college for eight years and have life expericnce
But I'm A Human Shield, Immune Generally, Brainstorming all of the things
That I've Ever Dreamed I Could Give To My Husband, And Look Into His Eyes
And I Try To Reassure Him It Will Be Alright, As The Bullets Rain Down All Around
This is What It Feels Like To Be A Mother; I Believe Chris's Mother Chose Me
From Heaven, Chose Me, Me, Only Me, To Take Care Of Him, Keep Him Alive
Through a rain of Bullets My Lamb I Will Shield You From Inhumanity
When My Fire, my life, flickers out, someday, I pray I can save your life from heaven
Theodore, You Will Always Be My Little Lamb....You Got The Food, I Got The Shelter
You Run Through The Jungle, and I Will Keep This Fort Held Down So Safe And Tight
You'll always want to come back home, you'll always miss your warm bed and my arms
In my arms I tenderly hold you so close.  Did you know that I love Know.  Did You Know
That You're Still Alive, That I am Taking Care of You, Saving You, Providing For You,
I am going to live to see you grow old and Die Of Old Age, That's All I Really Want Of Life!
You, Theodore, Are Somehow Going To Grow Old, Because I
I am Going To Continue Saving Your Life.  Human SHield,
I am holding you so Damnedly Tightly No I Don't Fear Them
The Devil's In The Details,//// Ironically.////  That Makes Me Smile, Gives Me Courage!
I Love You Theodore!
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.
