God gave me to you, for each other to love
Angels brought me, from heaven above
Your tender caress, my soul felt within
Teaching me slowly, my life to begin
Love and tenderness, to shape my tiny heart
So much love enveloped me, from the very start
The beauty of a mother, I can at last behold
I am richer than anyone, with boxes filled with gold
I see you now, with eyes that are not as a child
Your voice is still tender, and your manner just as mild
For always I'll be thankful, for God gave me to the best
For the hand that rocks the cradle, I am forever blest
