I have something to say,
It comes straight from my heart;
You have brought joy to my life,
You've been my friend from the start.

When life drags me down,
And the sun I cannot see;
I can always count on You,
You will be hugging me.

I have something to say,
Some, my opinion will not share;
But I've been around a while,
And I know when someone cares.

Life is sometimes very painful,
But Your joy always fills me with glee;
Hope for the future overflows,
Because I know that You love me.

I have something to say,
And I want to be heard;
You created the whole world,
You created even our birds.

So, though none may agree,
I will have my say;
No one can take Your place,
You are my God tomorrow and today.
