Sweet Sixteen

Sweet sixteen is a new era

Another year that you can dream

Womanhood is around the corner—

A lifetime though it may seem

Sweet sixteen, you've grown up

All the smiles and laughter that you share

Grace our home like wreathes of jewels

From a girl like you so rare

Sweet sixteen is nearer still

To the woman God would have you to be
Marriage to a godly young man

Will come about one day, you'll see

Sweet sixteen do not worry
Live your life happily carefree
There's no time like today to live
For only once a girl you'll be

Sweet sixteen, dream your dreams
Smile and laugh and sing a song
Glorify God in all you do
For one life is not very long

Birthday girls

Happy Birthday, Gracie!
