My Birthday

Today is my Birthday Lord 

Of all the gifts I've received 
I hold the gift of your love closest to my heart. 
of all the friends I've known, 
I cherish above all Your Friendship. 
There have been difficult days 
on the Journey called Life, 
even sorrow, 
but You have been there for me. 
There has been joy and laughter 
and I've seen Your presence there. 
You breathed life into my soul 
and You chose me to live! 
I hope You are pleased with me. 
I ask that You forgive me when I fail You. 
Today is my Birthday, Lord, 
,and I offer this day to You. 
I only ask that you walk with me. 
Lead me home O Lord 
Where we will celebrate this Journey 
of friendship and love 
in the everlasting life prepared by You. 
Thank you for the Birthday Lord!
