The Gift Of You
We cannot choose our parents
This we know is true
But if I had the choice
I would have chosen you
No one could have given
More in life to me
The years of love and nurturing
Brought happiness and glee
No sacrifice was too great for you
To help your siblings thrive
Your strength and determination
Are the reasons that we did survive
Without your love and dedication
Who knows where we would now be
I do so thank the Lord above
For choosing you for me
I love you
