Big Mama and Paw-Paw,
Memaw and Pop-Pop,
Grams and Poppie,
Nanna and Grandpa.
If it were not for our grandparents
Where would some of us be?
If it were not for their sacrifices
Where would some of us have landed?
We bless you
For gifts of love and time and patience
We bless you
For the sacrifices you made in middle age and retirement
So that we would not feel the sting of want.
God bless you
For helping your children raise us
For teaching us your faith
For keeping a strong light shining
In a world full of darkness
We bless you
For grandparents
For godparents
For keeping a strong light shining
For surrogate parents everywhere!
