LONG AWAITED TREASURE
A long waited treasure placed in their arms with love,
A precious gift of a son chosen in heaven above,
A little ray of sunshine to brighten every day,
Now that a brand new son has come their way.
Joshua they call him, so brave, true and strong,
Brought up in the truth and light, each heart singing a song
Of glad rejoicing, now a family together forever more,
Knowing the path to heaven and a God they all adore.
Welcome little stranger to this wonderful home,
Yet we must have known you as in heaven we did roam,
No joy can ever compare when empty arms are filled,
For this is what the Lord above for all has willed.
May Gods richest blessing come pouring from above,
As this wonderful family grows in unity and love,
Bound in earth and heaven, eternal love to gain,
Growing stronger everyday through both joy and pain.
Stage by stage he grows as time flies so fast,
A baby, a toddler, off to school, a teenager at last,
The time is always now to truly live and love
In preparation for the day when a family up above.
