The Beauty and Delight of a Child

On the day that you were born
I know the angels cried
To send away from them to me
A most wonderful and delightful child

For you have brought
Such joy to me
And for this
I am so grateful
But I know they miss you, son
From around the Master's table

I feel honored and blessed this day
To have you by my side
For you my son, my gift from God,
Have brought to me such peace and joy
I feel I must confide
