Forwarded from Music for Catholics
Today is the birthday of a very dear friend of mine. Someone who will remain anonymous. Please say a Hail Mary for her.
As to you, Cracker of the Countryside, this song is in your honour. In fact I will sing it today for you though you will not hear it. I know you are grown up already but it but the concept still applies.
Forever Young by Audra Mae
May God bless and keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young
May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you
May you always be courageous
Stand upright and be strong
May you stay forever young
May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful
May your song always be sung
May you stay forever young

An original piece, inspired by the birth of my firstborn. Never have words and music flowed so freely from my pen.
