From the time that I was just an embryo,
To the time that I was a wee little child.
You watched me form, You watched me grow,
From then till now, You've been my Guide.

Many times if I remember well,
I fell into trouble; and too much of it!
But You were there, that much I could tell,
Your gentle breath forever quelling the heat.

I try to imagine how life would've been,
If all these years You weren't by my side.
No one to turn to, not a single being...
No rein to grab during those rough, dusty rides.

Yes, You are my Love, my One and my Only.
The One who made me and is always around.
Thank You for being there, through thick and thin.
You're my One and my Only, of that I am proud.
