You gave me life in my beginning As You, LORD also chose my name Placing Your spirit deep within me Making me sensitive to all things
Gently placing in my heart Your grace Always allowing me each day to know Wherever I choose to go in this world With Your spirit, I am never alone
You placed me into my mother's womb In a family where Your love thrived Placing blessings in each generation As each kept Your spirits flame alive
Feeling I was one of Your favorites When each day You would let me know As Your blessing of love embraced me I knew Lord, you'd never let me go
Lord understanding the genuine reason Why the words fell from my mother's lips For she knew I would praise and serve You As her prayer was answered with promise.
When my life changed in 1976, my mom reminded why the change came!
