MY REASON FOR LIVING
 
Every time I hear a baby cry,
I have faith and hope this is why,
When a baby cries it gets attention.
It`s needs are met, now I will mention.

I grew up in a loving home
where children were loved and cared for.
Where love is, it`s easy to have faith and hope.
Where there`s no love, there`s no faith nor hope.

God moves in mysterious ways,
His wonders to preform.
He can take the vilest sinner
and cause him to reverse his scorn.

With faith in God, there`s hope for all people.
This is why I continue to shine His loving steeple.
No matter what kind of home you were raised in,
God`s Holy Spirit can break through that hard skin.

We must have hope, faith and love.
Love is the greatest from God above.
Like parents takes care of babies` needs,
A loving God will take care of our spiritual needs.

Just as a baby learns to grow and mature,
From God`s Word, we learn to grow and mature.
We may fall at times, but we get up and keep going.
Through His Word and prayer,
His love in us will be showing.
