Mayumi

Truth, Freedom and Beauty,
Displaying the traits of a daughter of God.
Truth, Freedom and Beauty,
As she walks down the path that all men must trod.

With courage strong she presses on
Despite set-backs, decisions, and fears.
With truth as her lamplight and God as her guide,
She will conquer the battle of years.

As free as an eagle she starts up the path,
It’s her God-given right to choose.
But, with truth as her lamplight and God as her guide,
Never her way will she lose.

Like a vast field of lilies her beauty shows through
While she conquers the pitfalls of life.
Like a heaven of stars her beauty shines bright,
Though in trouble, or anguish, or strife.

She holds to the truth that was given at birth
By her Father who watches above.
Holding fast to the promise of charity and hope
She follows that pathway of love.

With Truth, Freedom and Beauty,
She holds fast to the iron rod.
And with Truth, Freedom and Beauty,
She enters the Kingdom of God.

To Mayumi on her baptism day.
