Lord, thank you for my children
Lord, thank you for all three
They are all truly blessings
I am sure you do agree
From their cute little toes
even nose wipes on clothes
Baby laughs and tiny cries
the first time each one says bye bye
these moments quickly seem to pass time
really does go by so fast
They grow up quickly people say
Enjoy each and every day
and looking up, I do now see
the oldest is now taller than me!
the little laughs and little cries
have been replaced by bigger guys
days of collecting leaves from the trees
are replaced by sharing my car and my keys
Lord, help me to make memories that last
time really does go by so fast
God protect and prepare these boys in my care
and help me hold off the gray in my hair
God give me the grace to be patient and kind
To treasure each day
To keep Your ways in mind
Lord fill me with your daily joys
Help me to love each of these boys
