this fits my life perfectly perfect right now…

Children are a blessing sent from God above
For us to care and nurture and most of all to love.


God calls us to be parents and gives us all the tools
And when we feel like giving up, our strength He will renew.


Children are a gift from God that He so freely lends
To make it through the childhood years, on Him we must depend.


He must have a presence, you see it must take three
The parents, child and Christ at the center to be a family.


From childhood days to a child full grown
Their joys and hurts are a parent’s own.


Times of joy and laughter and those times of tears
The times spent raising a child are surely the best of years.


There comes that time in life when a child will leave the nest
We must send them off with love and a prayer and leave to God the rest.

We’ve have shared the Word of God, we’ve taught them right from wrong
Now it’s time to let them go and let them write their song.


The faith instilled, the examples lived, and the lessons taught
All gifts that we’ve given our child, which will never be forgotten.


There are many paths a child can take, right or wrong will remain unknown
But rest assured that in the end, they all lead back to home.
