Your bodies are the cup
That carry our souls
With God at your side
You make us whole

Enduring great pressure
As we enter the light
Some can’t wait to get here
Others put up a fight

The aches and pains
That we put you through
Become a distant memory
As we are handed to you

Both of us glowing
Radiating pure love
In that moment God’s smiling
Looking down from above

As time passes
You help us grow
Nurturing our hearts
Always letting us know

We are each special
One of a kind
A gift from God
He allowed you to find

We may be too young
Or unable to say
How important you are
Each and every day

So let this remind you
On a daily basis
You are the reason
For our smiling faces
