Emma

In the quiet of the morning, I whisper a prayer

Thinking of the blessing that I get to share

You are my only granddaughter, a gift from above

A living, breathing picture of the Father's love

Emma, you're the miracle I hold so close

You are so beautiful, inside and out

You're funny and special, there is no doubt

You bring a holy light to all of my days

And I lift up my hands in a moment of praise

With tears in my eyes and a heart that is true

I cry out, Jesus, I love You

Every time you smile, the shadows just break

I thank the Lord for the joy that you make

You have a spirit that is bright and so sweet

You make this season of my life complete

I cherish every memory, every laugh that we share

My only granddaughter, my answered prayer

You are so beautiful, inside and out

You're funny and special, there is no doubt

You bring a holy light to all of my days

And I lift up my hands in a moment of praise

With tears in my eyes and a heart that is true

I cry out, Jesus, I love You

I didn't know a heart could hold this much grace

Until I saw the wonder shining on your face

Lord, You gave me a treasure I will always protect

A beautiful soul I could never expect

Jesus, I love You, I say it again

For the gift of my Emma, forever, amen

You are so beautiful, inside and out

You're funny and special, there is no doubt

You bring a holy light to all of my days

And I lift up my hands in a moment of praise

With tears in my eyes and a heart that is true

I cry out, Jesus, I love You

Yes, for my Emma, Jesus, I love You
