Obadiah

A baby boy, a promised child;

A gift from God, a bundle of joy;
Born to us is our love and blessing;
A precious honour, a mighty favour.

Our hearts rejoice,

Our souls bless You,
Our minds and bodies stand renewed,
Our Lord and Saviour, thank You.

He looks like You, he looks like us;

His tiny feet, his dreamy eyes;
Witness he is of your grace and faithfulness;
A unique creation, a pure celebration.

Our hearts rejoice,

Our souls bless You,
Our minds and bodies stand renewed,
Our Lord and Saviour, thank You.

(Written for the birth of Obadiah Murtaza, son of Neha and Murtaza. Picture has Supriya and Bambi with the new born.)
