One day by the ocean, Under the stars, She will pick up A handful of sand; And, She will know That each grain of sand, Each drop of water, Each star in the sky, Or leaf from a tree, Each drop of her blood Every molecule of air That she breathes Is a gift from her Father Saying thank you, For being my daughter.
