Amanda

I cherish the memories of our mommy-daughter days

The sound of your laughter chasing all my cares away

You still have that beautiful, radiant smile

Even after walking such a difficult mile

I look at you now, and I thank the Lord above

For a daughter who is guided by His light and His love

Oh, Amanda, I’m so proud of the woman you’ve become

Beautiful and smart, pouring love into your son

You are the strongest soul that I have ever known

I stand in awe of the grace that you have shown

Through every heavy trial, your heart remains so loving

My precious daughter, you are my greatest blessing

When the tragedy came and the shadows fell deep

When his father was taken and the valley was steep

It was a horrible storm, such a sudden, dark night

But you held onto faith, and you held onto light

You didn't let the sorrow anchor you down

You carried the weight and kept your feet on the ground

Oh, Amanda, I’m so proud of the woman you’ve become

Beautiful and smart, pouring love into your son

You are the strongest soul that I have ever known

I stand in awe of the grace that you have shown

Through every heavy trial, your heart remains so loving

My precious daughter, you are my greatest blessing

Lord, I thank You for the way that she heals

Her spirit is tender, but her courage is steel

She faced the unthinkable pain and the tears

But she didn't surrender to the anger or fears

She just wrapped up her boy and gave him her best

Through the fire and the flood, she has stood every test

Oh, Amanda, I’m so proud of the woman you’ve become

Beautiful and smart, pouring love into your son

You are the strongest soul that I have ever known

I stand in awe of the grace that you have shown

Through every heavy trial, your heart remains so loving

My precious daughter, you are my greatest blessing
