My Birthday Song

The waters broke forth
Blood followed after
The head sooner appeared
A push truly was needed
A nurse did a little pulling
Legs now were out
The chord had to be cut
A slap on the butt was good

A cry sweet to hear
A new soul was born
Healthy,handsome and breathing
Held dearly in the bossom
Songs were sung,praising
God's works,amazing
The child is still surviving
Mom did works so great

Now she is long gone
More good had she taught him
His soul now in God anchored
One score and a year now he is
Saved by God's grace amazing
Prayers and praises is he offering

He prays for mercy and lifet
Forgiveness of sins
Desiring a soul so clean
Escape from spiritual bongage
Free from filth and sin
Praying for love and freedom
He hates a life unclean

Pain and sorrow he knows all
In life he wishes to see more
Grow old,grey haired and wax wise
Give love,save lives and live a legacy
Live long,live good and be raptured

Glory to God im 21

You came out of mother's womb and started a journey on earth. You were keen to follow Lord's path and that was the most important thing. Your birthday song is a happy song--most touching. Love
