Gift of Faith

Sweet Grandchild, may I welcom you?
I hope you like our world,
With awesome sunsets, twinkling stars,
And bright new dawns unfurled.

And soft, green grass and sparkling snow
And friends’ warm hands to hold,
The songs of birds and fresh spring breeze,
Warm fires for when it’s cold.

Oh, yes, there are things like bumps and storms,
But love will hold you close.

And for every thorn you find,
There’s the sweet smell of a rose.

I want to thank our Father God,
Who gives all life and breath,
That we can have you in our world,
A precious gift of “Faith.”
