Darius

I look back on the years, just watching you grow

From a quiet young boy to the man that I know

You carry a kindness, a heart that is huge

A patient spirit, a quiet refuge

You move through this world with a gentle grace

Leaving a little more love in every place

Oh, Darius, you are the light in my days

A loving son in a million ways

Through all of the triumphs, through all of the testing

I know that you are God's greatest blessing

Yeah, my beautiful boy, you're God's greatest blessing

Determined and strong-willed, you carve out your lane

But you're never too proud to reach through the pain

When the world gets too heavy, you pick up the phone

You call when you need me, you're never alone

Hearing your voice on the end of the line

Brings peace to my soul, tells me everything's fine

Oh, Darius, you are the light in my days

A loving son in a million ways

Through all of the triumphs, through all of the testing

I know that you are God's greatest blessing

Yeah, my beautiful boy, you're God's greatest blessing

Keep holding your ground, keep standing so tall

I’ll always be waiting to answer your call

That tender affection you show to the earth

I’ve cherished it deeply since the day of your birth

Oh, Darius, you are the light in my days

A loving son in a million ways

Through all of the triumphs, through all of the testing

I know that you are God's greatest blessing

My endless joy, my everyday lesson

Darius, you are God's greatest blessing
