She Carried Me

When I think of the times we shared, 
Great smile that was on her face,
The times when she helped me, 
She lifted me up when I fell. 

She Carried Me
She went to work just to feed me, 
She went out of her way to help me, 
She carried me for 9 months, 
She changed me when I couldn't, 

She Carried Me
She gave me money for food and transport, 
I saved it and gave it back to her, 
She needed it more than I did, 
She was managing the entire family. 

She Carried Me
Now that I've grown and made it, 
I'm boasting about how much I bless her, 
No penny in the bank can thank her enough, 
I want to thank her while she's still alive. 

She Carried Me
Once she's gone, no penny in the bank will bring her back, 
To the world she's my mom, to me she's the world, 
I love her so much, it can't be described in words, 
Nobody can ever take my mom's place in my heart. 

She Carried Me

Family

I don't just have fans, 
I have friends who support me, 
I don't just have friends, 

I have strong mates around me, 
I have precious family

It is an Animal

It is red or grey-blue in colour, 
Red ones also have black and white,
It has large powerful hind legs, 
It has long muscular tail for balance,  
It does have a small head, 
It is an unofficial symbol of Australia, 
What is it? 
A kangaroo.

She Smiles

My little daughter wakes up in the morning with a big smile, 
She is such a cutie, full of joy that's why her middle name is Joy, 
She reminds me and my wife what life is really all about, JOY! 
There's nothing more important than enjoying this life. 

My little daughter wakes up in the morning with a big smile, 
She likes to dance with her whole body, 
She likes to do Zulu kicks and putting her hands in the air, 
She watches me as I walk around the room, smiling enjoying life. 

My little daughter wakes up in the morning with a big smile, 
Her life is so precious, like the brand new glass bowl, 
I hold her like I'm holding an egg from the Supermarket, 
She is so fragile and small and kissable and obedient. 

My little daughter wakes up in the morning with a big smile, 
She makes hundred faces all at once, 
She lies down on my chest totally depending on me to keep her safe, 
She mirrors what I do, no doubt she absolutely adores me haha. 

My little daughter wakes up in the morning with a big smile, 
It feels so great to have someone who look to you for answers, food, burps, cuddles, nappy change, baths, new clothes, dance moves, songs, walks and so much more,
I have no idea how I lived my life without her, 
I really love, loving my cute, beautifully gorgeous daughter,
Nala.

Love

Love's like a river, 
That is always on the move, 
Searching... new places, 

New places to just visit, 
New fun projects to work on. 

Love

Psalm 23

You prepare a table before me,
So that my enemies will see, 
You anoint my head with oil,
My cup overflows to the soil. 

The Lord is my shepherd, 
He makes me strong as a leopard, 
In Him I have everything,
I shall no longer want anything. 

He leads me in pastures green, 
A place the world have never seen,
He leads me besides quite waters,
He surely loves His sons and daughters. 

He refreshes my soul,
Again and again He makes me whole, 
He guides me along right paths, 
His wisdom in my head lasts.  

Surely goodness an mercy will follow me,  
All the days of my life I wanna be,   
The person who praises Him whenever,
I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Change

Change has come over me, 

I don't know wherelse I would be, 

Great life I now see.

Change.
