I Was There To Hear Your Borning Cry

John Ylvisaker

1. I was there to hear your borning cry I'll be there when you are old I rejoiced the day you were baptized To see your life unfold I was there when you were but a child With a faith to suit you well In a blaze of light you wandered off To find where demons dwell 2. When you heard the wonder of the Word I was there to cheer you on You were raised to praise the living Lord To whom you now belong If you find someone to share your time And you join your hearts as one I'll be there to make your verses rhyme From dusk till rising sun 3. In the middle ages of your life Not too old, no longer young I'll be there to guide you through the night Complete what I've begun When the evening gently closes in And you shut your weary eyes I'll be there as I have always been With just one more surprise 4. I was there to hear your borning cry I'll be there when you are old I rejoiced the day you were baptized To see your life unfold
