Raising a Son

Oh to have a little son
with his mother who he's from.

There's also some of me in there
along with her in answered prayer.

We'd all go places out for fun
and care for him together as one.

He could learn and dream and grow
as the minutes and hours flow.

And our dreams would be with him
as in love he learns to win.

He would learn to throw a ball,
catch a fish and climb a wall.

We'd enjoy his growth and fun
with each new day a rising sun.

He'd meet with girls and learn romance
with Valentines and a school dance.

We could together share this joy
of raising up a happy boy.

In all of this our love would grow
as man and wife for all our life.
