Analysis of What a Privilege God Has Given Me
When I think about the many child that has been doomed
The lost lives that have died in vain inside their mother's womb
I think about the living and their claim to fame
While others not even with a name
What would the children of the death womb be if given life to live
What in life could they have known the talents that were hid
What would they contribute to this earth so much in need
To the lives that snuffed out theirs, not letting them proceed
What a privilege God had given me to live my life on earth.
Breathing life within me as my mother gave me birth.
