My Valentine's Day Baby

Gabrielle my gift from above
The Lord showered me with his precious love
The day of your birth was a remarkable event ,
I know that you were heaven sent.
Your rosy pink cheeks were a sight to see,
No one could be happier than me.

The sight of your face just melted my heart
I knew from that moment we'd never be apart.
My Valentine's Day baby a dream come true
I got exactly what I desired and that was you!

Now that you've grown up and gone far away
At night as I kneel down to pray,
I ask the Lord to keep you safe
 In every way.
