A Gift Of Gold
Little baby soft and tender
Long ago I still remember
Counting tiny little toes
Big blue eyes and button nose
First steps towards me with a grin
I remember everything.
Yes I see you in my heart
As I did right at the start
Still my baby, kind and true
I am very proud of you.
Off to school the years went by
Watched you laugh and watched you cry.
Twenty-two years, they have flown
Now you are a woman grown.
A gift for me from high above
A being full of light and love.
God gave me a gift in gold
To help me in my growing old.
So to God I humbly say
Thank you for this gift today.
Give to her Lord love, not sorrow
And a wonderful tomorrow.
