God set the world in place,
He hung the stars up in space,
He made the land and the sea,
Then he made you and me.
He sat back and watched for all that was good,
He saw things to be as they should.
He just had one more blessing he had in store,
He created a family, but whatever for,
He knew a family would have a special place,
to shine a reflection on our face,
He made love in our hearts,
Whether we risked our lives or not and there were no happy endings,
We still stood by each other defending,
Through your pain and strife, Family stay constant in your life.
We will lend a helping hand,
Until we have the strength to stand.
They will pick you up when you are down;
When you need a friend they'll stick around.
Giving you the strength you need,
Encouraging you to succeed.
