Family

Mine is a gift from God inherent,
To be born of goodly loving parents,
Who humbly spend their all,
To nurture as their call.

The way to happiness,
Is living in selflessness.
It begins with giving life,
And continues in spreading light.

Amongst each trial we bear,
Is a strength deeper than every care,
Which holds us all together,
For we are a family forever.

Now and for all eternity,
We are cherished by God as glory,
For we are His family,
Sons and daughters of His royalty.

As we live faithfully,
We will return someday,
To reunite everlastingly,
And progress after Deity.

We shall not falter nor fail,
For we are sent to prevail,
And after all we learn and do,
God always upholds all His faithful true.

With patience, we shall run the race,
Knowing that as we seek His face,
One day we'll be in His embrace.
This is what strengthens the family race.
