Life Is
Life is...
Life is your first cry that makes your mom and dad smile
it is the sleepless nights they will have to spend for a while
it’s the excitement they feel when you first say a word
And your first step, your second and your third
It’s the fear in your heart when you take a step of your own
knowing moving forward, you will soon face the unknown
it’s the courage you pull out of your innermost heart
it’s the hope towards a brand new start
it’s the tears you shed for your broken dreams
it’s the grudge you hold for all the worlds schemes
But it’s also the love and kindness you choose to show
it’s your resiliency to bounce back from below
Life is the smile you give to a stranger
And how giddy you are when you try to pursue her
it’s when you decide to bind two hearts as one
it’s the story you want to tell your daughter and your son
Life is grieving for what’s lost and gone
But it’s also choosing to move on
Life is praying for God’s mercy and grace
It’s your heart longing for His embrace
Life is the choice you make day in and day out
What you made out of it, is what it’s all about
It’s your triumph, your victory and your failure
It’s lifting it all up to Christ our saviour.
