My baby is leaving home today,
it was only twenty years ago
that she came into the world.
A tiny angel
now all grown up,
with a shining heart of gold
and a sword of truth.
Today i see it ever more clearly,
the blessing of this little cherub,
God's perfect gift to me,
My sadness has my cup
running over.
