< Verse >
Your mother was in labor her
husband by her side
Brothers and sisters waiting
for you to arrive
Doctors and nurses did
their very best
Friends and neighbors prayed
for your life to be blessed
< Chorus >
No one knows you better
than the Father and the Son
You were with God’s Spirit
on the day you were born
You are the jewel that is destined
for the crown
To be worn in the Kingdom
of God
< Instrumental Break – 1 Bridge >
< Verse >
When trials and
temptations and sorrows abound
Some folks get broken and others
cast down
Treat my daughter gently
while you hold her hand
She was conceived in love
to be God’s true friend
< Bridge >
Someday you’ll stop in
wonder at the beauty all around
See the stars in the sky
the sun going down
In the stillness of the
moment God’s hand will reach down
And show you the Kingdom
of God
