GENERATIONS


Baby, as I look into your eyes
I see the wonder of creation
Baby, as I look at your face
I can seer the strength you will have in the future
Baby, I can see all the things you can become
The opportunities I never will have
The example you will show
And the light that will shine from you

Baby as I see you lying there
So innocent so free from the cares of the world
That in time will be upon your shoulders
Of all the generations of time yours will be the one
To shine forth from the darkness of corruption

Baby, as I look at your smile
I see the joy and happiness you will enjoy
When the time comes for the world to be made new

Baby, the possibilities are yours
All the things that you'll be able to do
All the things I've never done
To make this a better world to live in
To finish the work we have begun.
