GREAT
IS THY FAITHFULLNESS - MIDI
Legacy
of an Adopted Child
Once
there were two women
Who
never knew each other.
One
you do not remember,
The
other you call mother.
One
gave you a nationality,
The
other gave ou a name.
One
gave you the seed of talent,
The
other gave you an aim.
Two
different lives shaped
to
make your one;
One
became your guiding star,
The
other became your sun.
One
gave you emotions,
The
other calmed your fears.
One
saw your first sweet smile,
The
other dried your tears.
The
first gave you life,
The
second taught you to live it.
The
first gave you a need for love,
And
the second was there to give it.
One
gave you up,
It
was all she could do.
The
other prayed for a child,
And
God led her straight to you.
And
now you ask me through your tears,
The
age old question through the years;
Heredity
or Environment, which are you a product of?
Neither
my darling, neither;
Just
two different kinds of love.
