Josiah

The world was still quiet, the stars were so bright

Waiting for morning to chase out the night

The clock on the wall hit four forty-four

And my heart opened up like never before

Hello, Josiah, you took your first breath

A beautiful miracle, nothing but blessed

I'm holding you close in the early gray light

And everything suddenly feels so right

Oh, Josiah, my sweet baby grandson

Your beautiful story has only begun

I don't know just yet who you'll grow up to be

But you're already everything perfect to me

Born in the dawn, so pure and brand new

Josiah, the whole world is waiting for you

I look at your hands and I look at your eyes

Wondering what dreams will light up your skies

Will you be a thinker, a builder, a guide?

Whatever you do, I'll be right by your side

Today is day one, the start of your song

In this family's arms is where you belong

We haven't made memories, we're starting today

But I wouldn't have it any other way

Oh, Josiah, my sweet baby grandson

Your beautiful story has only begun

I don't know just yet who you'll grow up to be

But you're already everything perfect to me

Born in the dawn, so pure and brand new

Josiah, the whole world is waiting for you

They say four forty-four is a sign from above

A message of angels, protection, and love

You came in the early hours, stealing the show

And I'm gonna be here to watch how you grow

From your very first morning, right from the start

You've taken a permanent place in my heart

Oh, Josiah, my sweet baby grandson

Your beautiful story has only begun

I don't know just yet who you'll grow up to be

But you're already everything perfect to me

Born at four forty-four, so pure and brand new

Josiah, my heart is forever with you
