God's Gift
I’m a gift from God, never unwrapped.
My life cut off as a matter of fact?
Hidden in darkness, though God hears my cries.
He sent me to be your special surprise.
Fashioned by God inside of you, Mother.
Placed in your womb to protect and cover.
Growing inside you…….God’s great mystery.
Without you my life will never be.
You say, “This baby, I just want to forget!”
Yet the choice you make, you may one day regret.
You will never hear my sweet voice.
If you don’t make the choice…….
To envelop me in a tender embrace.
And know the joy when you see my face.
Can’t you see? Don’t you understand?
That in His book all my days were planned.
I’m a gift, carved by God’s own hand.
Can’t you see? Please understand…….
My life is in your hands.
Listen to Him and hear His Voice.
If you open your heart, you will make the right choice.
