A Child Is Born

So rare a gift bestowed To hold the future in your hands Your legacy in life Your values to unfold… A chance to make and mold The person you were naught Make perfect the mistakes Live dreams you often sought Make reality the vision That never came to be… You hold within your hands A challenge none can equal The actress in the leading role The star in your life’s sequel The future’s in your hands The world’s waiting for your plans.
