FOR ZERIN
This is the day, one year ago,
You came, our lives to bless.
We’ve come this day to celebrate
With those who love you best.
We have brought you gifts,
We’ll laugh and clap and cheer.
To see you with your birthday cake,
As you complete your very first year.
Your name is a very special one,
Given by your father and mother.
Zerin, you’re named for a mountain,
Moved by the faith of Jared’s brother
In the words of your father’s blessing
As he gave your name to you
He asked you to stand as a mountain,
Stalwart, strong and true.
When the Lord has a work to do,
And by you it must be done,
May you be moved by faith in God,
And Jesus Christ His son.
Happy Birthday, to you, dear Zerin,
The son of my youngest son.
We are here today with your loved ones;
With you we’ll have some fun.
Have a Very Happy Birthday,
Enjoy it while you may,
For it will be another year before
We celebrate your next birthday!
