Heaven missed an angel when you were born
A heart of light and love was your adorn
You birthed me into life with your love
Filled with warmth and tenderness from above
In my weakness, you were a lioness
And gentle potter when I was a mess
Bad gang happened and I began to stray
You employed corrective love to show the way
You could always tell my hurt from a smile
For you read my emotions from a mile
If the way to heaven is through a heart
You are the divine straight and narrow path
My heart is forever roaming the skies
But your love for you is set in the stars
