Saorla

Sinead McNulty 1980 (Omagh)

December 23 
Lyric
No one knows the fear I hold as you grow, and grow, and grow
What will be I do not know
But im scared, that i know

You are here now my dear
I do not know why I had so much fear
I love you as the day is long
here with me you belong

You've helped me in so many ways
You've brightened up so many days
I never thought that this would be
but im so grateful God gave you to me.
