My Greatest Gift

Edwin Ronald Lambert

My Greatest Gift

My parents are
My greatest gift
And it's the best I got
From my God's list

They cheer me up
Whenever I'm sad
And also scolds me up
For being so bad

They teach me truth
And teach me good
They care for me
And give me food

They would help me
With my studies
And also let me play
With my buddies

I love my mother
And also my father too
Cause they're the greatest gift
That God can give us too
