I love to hear your voice
Early in the morning
I love to hear you call my name
Abba– this is most endearing

I love to hear you boast about Me
When you get the advantage
I love to hear your laughter
To know that you are encouraged

I love to see your tears of joy
To see you dance and rejoice
I love to watch your excitement
For me, it’s a thrill not mere amusement

I love so many things about you
I am glad I created you, it’s true
You are my sweet delight — my passion
What would it be like without you

It’s unthinkable, there had to be you for me
That is why I breathed me into you
You became a living soul, and I am pleased
As the multi-faucets of the joy you bring me unfold

Genesis 1:27–28
