Because it is your Birthday,

You get an extra hug,

You also are entitled to,

Another year of love.



Now when God first picked you out,

So many years ago,

He tucked an angel in your heart,

Before He let you go.



So, I see an angel looking back,

When I look into your eyes,

Your Birthday is a gift to me,

Your Birthday is my prize



Of course, I cannot match such gift,

By what I say or do,

But when I wish you Happy Birthday,

I AM THANKING GOD FOR YOU!
