Take a child by the mind,
Take a child by the soul,
Take a child by his sight,
Take a child by his smile,
Take a child by his wonder,
Take a child by his dreams,
Take a child by the heart,
and show him the way,
Lead a child each morning,
into a beautiful day.
and give him the strength,
To fight every challenge,
and go to great lengths.
and let God be known,
It is by his mighty grace,
that so big they have grown.
and show him wonders galore,
Teach him curiosity,
and the need to explore.
so beautiful and sweet,
And tell him of all,
the friends he will meet.
of the life all around,
Let him savor each flavor,
and hear each new sound.
and say it's all-right,
To follow those dreams,
as far as he might.

For there is no greater gift,
from our creator above,
And after your child has grown,
and alone they now stand,
Watch and enjoy as they take,
their children by the hand.
