Prayers for Her (Pt. 23)

Surrendering your children

By Rowan Finley Published 3 years ago 1 min read
"I Surrender" Hillsong Cover by Rowan Finley

I love her through galaxies wide and far

S he dances like a feather, free and wild

U sually, I dream of the feats she'll conquer around the world

R owing down short streams of her childhood memories

R aking leaves of her sweet creativity that fell down from friendly trees

E eventually, she'll grow to see how I've planted prayer deep into the earth

N o person can separate us as we laugh and watch the world whirl

D etermined to be the best father I can, as I sing over this pearl-girl

E verlasting grace and compassion for this vessel, she shines throughout

R ain down kisses from Heaven on her rosy cheeks that I love dearly
