The birth of Maura Anne
A child is born to you today
And on your knees to God you pray
Thanking and praising the Lord above For sending you this child to love
Upon this child you'll lavish care
You'll furnish all her needs
You'll be there to help her walk
Very soon she'll begin to talk
As she grows and blossoms
A flower among the weeds
Fondly you'll smile and be so aware
Of all her wondrous deeds
You'll become her guiding light
While protecting her with all your might
Joyfully teaching her all she knows
Watching proudly as she grows
Your eyes will fill with joy and love
To see her find her wings
Knowing you'll be there to call
When life's troubles make her fall
When she's adult and fully grown
She will use the things you've shown
She'll pass them on with lots of love
When she has a child to call her own.
