My child, my child
From your birth
That miraculous day you
Entered this Earth
From screams of pain
To tears of joy
There you are
My beautiful baby boy
From the moment I saw that little face
Your smile a warm embrace
You are a gift to me
From the one on high
I will do my best as I write this
Not to cry
It is truly amazing baby
Now I see
Me in you
Some essence of immortality
I owe you all
I pray that I never fall
Down on my duty to you
On me you can always call
Let it be known
From the pit to the throne
It is a privilege to be your father
