My First Breath

To my Father in Heaven You've been there for me From the time I took my first breath Like a candlelight. Ever I could see Or feel the light of Your breath Deep inside my mind. Your guidance so near To light up my path in secret Till I found t’was Thine. Walking with you near Ever since that night I pledged My heart your desire. No one’s above Thee For you are all life’s first breath Therefore my first light. I’ll be there for Thee Each moment I take a breath For my joy is thine.
