Angela my green eye girl

October twenty-ninth, you were ready for the world

I went to Wela's house to wait for my little girl

She made some hot chicken broth, she knew just what to do

Five o'clock came around, and we were off to welcome you

Me, your Wela, and your Dad, praying through the night

Waiting for the moment that you stepped into the light

Angela, my green eye girl, my very firstborn child

You brought the love of Jesus in your gentle, patient smile

A little bitty soul that made me finally understand

How deeply a mother loves the blessing in her hands

Happy birthday, Angela, a gift from up above

With God and your family at the center of your love

Meeting you that first time, a feeling I won't forget

An instant kind of love that my heart had never met

We cried tears of happiness when you finally arrived

Wela carried you with joy, with wonder in her eyes

She held you close and called you her very own baby

And I just thanked the Lord for the miracle He gave me

Angela, my green eye girl, my very firstborn child

You brought the love of Jesus in your gentle, patient smile

A little bitty soul that made me finally understand

How deeply a mother loves the blessing in her hands

Happy birthday, Angela, a gift from up above

With God and your family at the center of your love

You are patient, you are smart, you give with all your heart

Living out a Godly life, set beautifully apart

The first to serve the Lord exactly as He planned

Walking in His holy grace, guided by His hand

You put the Father first, and your family right there too

I am so incredibly proud of the spirit inside you

May the Lord God guide you on this special birthday

I pray His light surrounds you with every word you pray

From that little bitty soul to the faithful woman I see

Love always, your Mama Rosa, for all eternity

Angela, my green eye girl, my very firstborn child

You brought the love of Jesus in your gentle, patient smile

A little bitty soul that made me finally understand

How deeply a mother loves the blessing in her hands

Happy birthday, Angela, a gift from up above

With God and your family at the center of your love

Yes, God and your family at the center of your love
