I remember the day I held you in my arms

Swore I’d always protect you, keep you safe from harm

I couldn't believe how beautiful you were to me

My first and only daughter, my meant-to-be

With those beautiful freckles upon your face

And your calm, sweet spirit filling up the space

Even searching for your lost stuffed animals at night

Everything about you makes my world so bright

Shanelle Cheila Jimenez, you light up the room

Chasing away every shadow and gloom

No one could replace you, it’s forever true

I don't know another daughter, I only know you

Your laughter is the rhythm keeping me so strong

Right here in my heart is where you belong

You get so silly with your British voices

Making me crack up at your funny choices

I sit and watch you draw, sketching out your world

I'm just so grateful for my beautiful girl

You bring a joy to my life that I can't explain

A tender kind of sunshine breaking through the rain

I’m so glad I have you, my irreplaceable light

I'll always be standing by to make sure you're alright

Shanelle Cheila Jimenez, you light up the room

Chasing away every shadow and gloom

No one could replace you, it’s forever true

I don't know another daughter, I only know you

Your laughter is the rhythm keeping me so strong

Right here in my heart is where you belong

I know life gets heavy, but let God take the pain

Come to the Father, let Him wash away the rain

Trust in Him completely, and put your trust in me

He will never let you down, just wait and you will see

Keep your sweet innocence for a man who loves the Lord

Marriage is an honor, a beautiful reward

Let him cherish everything that I love about you

A love that is holy, a love that is true

Oh, Shanelle Cheila Jimenez, you light up the room

Chasing away every shadow and gloom

No one could replace you, it’s forever true

I don't know another daughter, I only know you

Your laughter is the rhythm keeping me so strong

Right here in my heart is where you belong
