Even Though You Wanted a Boy

I've been struggling with what I'm going to say I don't know what the right thing is to do And even though it was kind of a happy/sad day You well know The Lord will always come through Congrats on your baby, I'm happy for you And have been so since I first heard the news She will be beautiful, pure, perfect, and new Looking at you gives us that many clues I know things play out to what we never expect It's a lesson we all had to learn Where will life take you? What step is next? It's not based on what we can earn You never know who you will need in your life You never know on which land you will trod But one thing's for certain, no matter the strife You are carrying a child of God
