Matthew

February eleventh, twenty-twenty-two

At one-eleven in the daytime, God gave me you

You were my little kicker, putting up a fight

Making your mama eat two red jellos every night

Now you're born into the world, and growing up so fast

Every single special moment is a memory that lasts

Oh, Matthew, with a big heart full of Jesus

Loving Mom and Dad and everyone who sees us

You're four going on five, Lord, how the time flies

So sweet and affectionate, a blessing from the skies

Through every passing season, through the sorrow and the joy

You will always be my baby boy

I know our bond has been a little rough sometimes

But we manage it daily, step by step we climb

Times are gonna be hard, son, 'cause life is just life

But you'll understand it one day when you look back on the strife

Just keep that adorable smile upon your face

And know that we are covered by His amazing grace

Oh, Matthew, with a big heart full of Jesus

Loving Mom and Dad and everyone who sees us

You're four going on five, Lord, how the time flies

So sweet and affectionate, a blessing from the skies

Through every passing season, through the sorrow and the joy

You will always be my baby boy

When the world gets heavy, remember John 3:16

Let Psalm 23 show you what the Good Shepherd means

Talk to God every day, bow your head and just pray

Mom and Dad love you, no matter what comes your way

Yes, Mom and Dad love you, no matter what comes your way!

Oh, Matthew, with a big heart full of Jesus

Loving Mom and Dad and everyone who sees us

You're four going on five, Lord, how the time flies

So caring and so special, right before my eyes

Through every passing season, through the sorrow and the joy

You will always be my baby boy

Yes, you will always be my baby boy
