What Birthday Gift for Jesus?



I cannot sing enough to show
How much your love has meant
Through all the years I've come to know
That love You freely sent!

I cannot praise You deep enough
To show the way I feel
Through good days and the ones quite rough.
At times they seem surreal.

And I cannot do anything
To celebrate that night,
Except to give you everything
Through love with all my might!
