A Cherished Birthday
Thank you, LORD, for this new day
I say to you, now as I pray
In your Word it does say
Meditate on it all the day
I meditate now as I relay
To those reading this today
Hoping they will ponder and weigh
That Jesus is King, the only way
My soul bids me here to stay
Writing words to portray
The wisdom and knowledge of His way
Never, no, never, should we betray
His voice sometimes I hear Him say
“Yes, I rejoice over you today
Singing gladly as you obey
My will delivered in glorious array
My children I come without delay
I bring my love, a colorful display
Smell the aroma from the delightful bouquet
And cherish it as it wisps away
My creation sings like the bluejay
That wistfully perches below the archway
It dares not wander nor go astray
As it sings to me, on my Birthday
Happy Birthday Jesus, I fly away
