What an honor to hold my grandson's son
To speak to him of life and love
Of the man he will be in this world
And the hope in the one above.
The words I spoke to him that day
Fell on his little ear
But I must live in them before him
If he is to really hear.
Pictured less than 30 minutes old
This is his debut
I think we all can agree
His life was brand new.
I see here peace in Christ
Born into His truth!
What an honor to touch a brand new life
To speak to them of life and love
Of potential in this world
And the hope in the one above.
To walk the path of faith with them
May we help them on their way
Sharing the wonders they express
As they wake up to each new day.
The words we speak encouraging
Fall well upon the ear
But we must live those words before them
If they are to really hear.
