my little sister, I want to tell you
I want to show you what you’re really worth
in the beginning when you were first made
when you were first formed before your birth
the sea and the sky were not enough
the flowers bloom was not enough
the mountains reaching to the sky were not enough
you’re beautiful, far more beautiful
than anything the world will ever know
keep your eyes on the King
cherish all of your tomorrows
daughter don’t grow up too fast
let your youth last because soon it's gone
daughter you’re far too precious
to waste your priceless kiss on just anyone
the Lord has made you sweet and wild
you are heaven’s little child
you’re the one whose face has launched a thousand smiles
mother, you’re still a pretty girl
your arms surround the world with your embrace
mother, I see your wisdom, your tears and laughter
in the lines on your lovely face
and your children one by one
will rise up to call you blessed
and all heaven will applaud as you enter into your rest
