The Grandma In You
The closet of toys,
dress up and more;
Sleepovers and tea parties;
That's what Grandma's are for.
A Grandmother's Love,
Is of the sweetest to know.
She'll open her heart;
She'll give you her soul.
She draws you close and brings you near;
And whispers family stories into your ear.
She'll tell you of hope;
She'll tell you of joy;
She'll tell you of songs,
Grandpa sang as a boy.
Now we add the word Great to her name;
And a new generation of stories she'll gain.
Not only stories, but encouragement too.
All these gifts we've received,
Because God gave us,
The Grandma in You.
