Today I am a man,
Because you made me a man.
Today I am a man,
Because of what you taught me.
Today I am a man,
Because of your grace and patience.
Today I am a man,
At the price of your sacrifices.
Today I am a man,
Who thanks you when I can,
For everything that you have done for me.
Today I am a man
That has been loved,
And a man that can love.
Today I may not be the perfect man
But I am a man,
Brave,
Powerful,
Kind,
Charming,
And loving.
Today I am still the man I am.
Because of my mother, father and sister.
Today I am a man,
Not the perfect man,
But forevermore,
A man nonetheless.

Today I am a man,
Because of your grace and patience.

And a man that can love.
Today I may not be the perfect man
But I am a man,

And loving.
Today I am still the man I am.
Because of my mother, father and sister.
Today I am a man,
Not the perfect man,
But forevermore,
A man nonetheless.
