A child is a precious gift
even more precious than gold
A child you will give a hug
to warm when it gets cold
I hope to share my life with you
to teach you all I know
and in return for all I do
I get to watch you grow
The Good Lord will be with you
while I am not around
and at night while your sleeping
all tucked in safe
and sound.
