Birth had long awaited me.
A church from which I've grown.
at school that I'm most thankful,
from a torn down hospital.
All built in ready.
Endless stories locked inside.
Long before i thought it so,
it'd had been there, all the while.
Yes! time has surely shown me
that each day brings great surprise.
For it's in those very buildings,
my son has come to life.
On through the dark cathedral,
from the rebuilt hospital,
to a school that he will tend to,
that stood there waiting still
its been there so long waiting
for all of us to show
long before my son was born
and before i thought it, so.
