Newborn Awe


It's all new
All wide-eyed and unbelievable
Everything you see
Everything we see in you and because of you

Welcome, Unexpected Blessing
Grandson undeserved
We receive you with bold love
And kick-butt grace
And we commit you to our Faithful Creator
And ask His favour to continue to do as good as the little we know

And we love you
How could we help it?
