Rating: 4.2

When each of my babies were born, I dedicated them back to God, knowing full well that while He gives them to us, there is no certainty as to how long we get to keep them and I prayed, Lord, if for some reason this child that you have given me should be taken from me, let it be while he/she is yet tender and unblemished by this world's iniquity as you so aptly put it, rather than drunk at the wheel or God forbid, by lethal injection with little assurance of their salvation. His answer came in two fold. He gave me two priceless sons who I will never have to wonder or worry about their accountability, a beautiful daughter who, along with her husband have a huge youth ministry and an irrepressible son who has given me four beautiful grandchildren, all who love to sing and pray. So you can see how this one comes unequivocally close to my heart. I gave it the highest I could go. Thank you for bringing such a lovely piece to us.
