Your Child
Your child thirsts,
So You provide her lifesaving water,
And You Cleanse her,
And You watch her flourish
Your child hungers,
So You provide her manna from heaven,
You nourish her,
And You watch her grow.
Your child is afraid,
And she cries out for You,
So You cradle her in Your arms,
And rock her to sleep.
Your child has fallen,
So You pick her up and dust her off,
You set her back on her feet,
And watch her walk the narrow path.
Your child is curious,
So You Share with her Your knowledge,
You are Understanding and Wisdom,
And You watch her learn.
Your child has done bad things,
So You Forgive Her,
You show her straight paths,
And You watch her love You more.
You are the center of Your child’s life,
You are the reason she’s alive,
You are her greatest love,
For Her there is no other.
You are Her Father,
You are Her Mother,
You are Her Creator,
You are Her God,
You are Yahweh.
Your child loves You,
More than any other,
And she thanks You,
From the bottom of her heart.
