God gives us each a
gift of life
To cherish from our
birth.
He gives us friends
and those we love
To share our days on
Earth.
He watches us with
loving care
And takes us by the
hand,
He blesses us with
countless joys
And guides the lives
we've planned.
Then, when our work
on Earth is done,
He calls us to His
side,
To live with Him in
happiness
Where peace and love
abide.
