A Gift

God gave me eyes so i can see your beautiful smile
God gave me a voice so i can talk to you awhile 
God gave me ears so i can hear what you have to say 
God gave me you to love each day
God blessed me one day with a beautiful daughter
Now god watches her strengthen with all that i have taught her
God blessed her one day with children of her own 
Now my beautiful daughter will love them with all that she has known
