Grandparents raising a grandchild who asks: "Who would take care of me if something happened to you and grandpa?"

I cannot live forever
to walk at your side.
The best thing I can do, Sweetheart,
is teach you to survive.
If you are in a rowboat,
don't forget an oar.
If in a rubber wadder,
don't wade far from shore.
When storms are in the forecast
seek your shelter first.
If you wander the desert,
water quinces thirst.
I will be there in spirit
ev'ry step you take.
My ears on earth were silent,
I'll hear each sound you make.
If you're in an earthquake,
I'll my body bend.
If you fall in water,
I'll raise you to land.
If you loose faith, are hopeless,
I will share my soul.
When enveloped in darkness,
God will make us whole.

The best thing I can do, Sweetheart,
is teach you to believe.
