Welcome the day that gave you birth!

And may it often come to bless,

The girl who graces the earth,

With her surpassing loveliness,

Having been named Faith,

The evidence and substance,

Of all, I ever did dream of.

 

And may through all this life of yours,

The virtues that within you glow,

And all that fond esteem assures,

At every birthday stronger grow,

And may all your days be,

As blessed as the blessing that you are.

 

So when the river dark be crossed,

And you shall have reached its golden shore,

They shall say one angel earth has lost,

And heaven has gained one angel more,

To bless and enrich the heavenly host.

 

I bless the day that shed its ray,

Of mortal light upon your brow,

And thank the One that lets you stay,

To hear and trust my simple vow;

 

“I love you!” and “I do”.

I hail the day that gave to earth,

A heart so kind, so brave, so just, so high.

 

And long may your loveliness be,

May its verdure forever be new!

 

May love, blessings, and Joy be your portion!

 

 

 

Best wishes, your,

Benard Makaa
