Unfinished Lullaby - ChristCast (Lyrics)

"Unfinished Lullaby" is a contemporary Christian lament that tenderly navigates the unbearable grief of losing a child, weaving a mother’s heartache into a journey of hope and surrender to God’s perfect comfort. With a haunting yet hopeful melody, the song captures the pain of an empty cradle and a silenced lullaby, contrasted with God’s enduring presence and love. Its intimate spoken intro and singable, soaring choruses create a deeply relatable experience, ideal for personal reflection or small worship settings. The lyrics blend raw vulnerability pleading for prayer over condolences and comparing the mother’s loss to God’s sacrifice of Jesus with a triumphant resolution of trust in God’s boundless grace.

"Lullaby Unfinished"
(A Song of Grief and God’s Embrace) Spoken
Intro
I wove a lullaby, gentle and clear,
For my baby’s smile, for eyes so new.
The notes fell silent, my heart’s torn in two,
But You’re still singing, God, You carry me through.
Verse 1
My cradle’s empty, dreams shattered in the night,
A star that faded, stealing all my light.
This loss is unbearable, drowning in the rain,
You say, “Give Me your anguish, I’ll ease your pain.”
You’re near the broken, You call out to me,
Your arms surround me, my soul starts to breathe.
Chorus
In the quiet night, my lullaby’s gone,
You sing over me, Your love presses on.
You mend my heart, You wipe my tears,
I’m grieving, but You’re here—always here.
Verse 2
Silence aches where my child’s voice should sing,
This weight’s too heavy, it’s breaking everything.
They give condolences, but I need their prayer,
You say, “Lean on Me, I’m lifting you there.”
You promise the broken a hope through the storm,
Your light breaks through, keeping my spirit warm.
Chorus
In the quiet night, my lullaby’s gone,
You sing over me, Your love presses on.
You mend my heart, You wipe my tears,
I’m grieving, but You’re here—always here.
Bridge
Your perfect comfort holds me, You mend me, oh God,
You know my loss, for Your Son’s life was lost.
Your love’s a melody, my heart unbound,
My child’s in Your arms, safe in Your saving grace.
Chorus
In the quiet night, my lullaby’s gone,
You sing over me, Your love presses on.
You mend my heart, You wipe my tears,
I’m grieving, but You’re here—always here.
Outro
My lullaby’s unfinished, Your song brings me peace,
I trust You, God—You’re in control, my heart finds release.
