I Give her to you Lord

Lord, when I look into my little girls' face
What is it that I see?
Just another part of the human race
Or is she a reflection of me?

I am trying so hard to raise her right
And yet always seem to fall short
Then realize when the day becomes night
That I need to depend on you Lord

You gave her to me as a wonderful gift
I never can repay
What do I have that I can give?
I'll give her to you everyday

I give my gift back to you dear Lord
With all you mighty power
May her heart, her mind, her body and soul
Let YOU bloom in her like a flower

Lord please help this beautiful child
To depend on you each day
To see your grace and infinite love
In the wonderful price you paid

Cindi-
   Well, hello there you!  
   See there, I knew there was a reason
   I sent you off by yourself this morning. LOL  
   I absolutely love this one...and I know
   it came straight from your heart.
   This is definitely one of your best!  

   Welcome to the blue pages...I'm glad
   you finally decided to join the fun.  

   love and hugs,
   ~vicky

I think all of us as mothers wish the best for our children, and your poem puts it in words of a mothers love.  Wonderful, and welcome to passions.  You will love it here.  

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.
