Happy Birthday!

On the Walk of Life
We pass each path but once
And leave behind a lasting trail
To each one who passes, to tell a tale.

The seeds you’ve sown 
On your Walk each day
In a hundred little hearts 
To point to them the Way
Will bloom spreading fragrances of love and care
Thanking the good Lord for keeping you for them, there. 

As a friend, I’ve you known
Inspiring, caring, challenging
To the world you have shown
How godliness builds a home
Love builds courage; loyalty sustains hope, nourishing care 
And we thank God a little of that each of us, your friends, share. 

Happy Birthday my friend, and may you be blessed with many, many more!
