Yaron

-A song from my Passover musical, "On Eagles' Wings" My sister Amy Grace also helped me with this one-

Oh, a baby
Oh, a baby
Oh, dear Avdah, the day finally came
He’s so precious
He’s so tiny
Oh, how glad you must be
What’s his name

We’ve named our son, our first-born boy
Yaron, for he will shout for joy
Oh, bless Yehovah! He has done
Great things; He’s given you a son

At first I thought that He would live
With each demand the foremen give
But since then I have come to see
That my Yaron will soon be free
He will shout for joy

Oh, how special
Oh, he sees me
Oh, my Avdah, he looks just like you

When I see him
I have joy now
For my son will be free–-it is true!

Yehovah bless you, precious boy
In Him, Yaron, you’ll shout for joy
Yehovah bless your family
With heritage among the free

Now my heart is (Now my heart is)
Overflowing (Overflowing)
He has blessed me (And not only you!)
When I see him (When we see him)
I have joy now (We have joy now)
For Yaron will be free–-it is true!

Oh, splendor to the Righteous One
He’s given you a first-born son!
We all at last have come to see
Yehovah soon will set us free
We will shout for joy!
