Every child is like a painting
Divinely made
It's we who add the colors
The tone, the shade
Our words have the power
To keep innocence alive
Our love will guide their footsteps
Be their passion to survive
A sacred trust is given to us
To impart the blessing
So while hearts are tender
While dreams are still clay
Give them moments to remember
So they'll look to heaven and say
Father, thank you for the blessing
You can tell the ones who have it
By the light in their eyes
They have a love for Jesus
And a love for life
Their hearts are at peace
Their soul is free to dream
When you're loved, you're the only one
In the world, so it seems
A sacred trust is given to us
To impart the blessing
So while hearts are tender
While dreams are still clay
Give them moments to remember
So they'll look to heaven and say
Father, thank you for the blessing
If your heart has turned to stone
'Cause the blessing you've never known
The Father of us all
Wants to call you His very own
A sacred trust is given to us
To impart the blessing
So while hearts are tender
While dreams are still clay
Give them moments to remember
So they'll look to heaven and say
Father, thank you for
Father, thank you for
Father, thank you for the blessing
