Story behind the song
Congratulations to my brother and his wife on their new baby girl!
Lyrics
Like the sun that rises in the morning, The shine grows on your face. When the light opens your eyes, You glance all around the place. And then in a sudden movement draws attention From those who see – a beautiful baby girl. Oh Ripley, you might not know now, But someday you surely will, Your mother and your father's love Is the strongest of them all. Like the moon that glows at night, We can see it in your eyes, The twinkle of the little star, That makes us wonder why. The greatest gift of all is bestowed upon two lives. Truly a blessing given from above. Ripley, may you live your life To the fullest and then beyond. You're an angel made from God That heaven sent from above. You're an angel, from above.

Bob, this is so excellent in every way, vocally, instrumentally and especially lyrically. I love it! It's funny, I did one two weeks ago too for my friend's grandchild, a baby girl and gave it to them on her first birthday. I may put it up one day now that you have yours up...it's the year of baby songs....hehehehe congrats to the parents and family.
