Royal Birth

I didn't write this, it was given to me by a young women leader. But I really really like it. It's made me cry. :)

I am a child or royal birth.
My father is King of Heaven and Earth.
My spirit was born in the courts on high,
A child beloved, a princess am I.

I was nurtured there,
I lived by His side
In a home where patience and Love abide.
My Mother was there in that glorious place,
Blessing her children with queenly grace.

I grew to the stature that spirits grow,
I gained the knowledge I needed to know.
I was taught the truth and I knew the plan
That God and Christ laid out for man.

I was there when the starts of morning sang.
I mingled my voice when the heavens rang.
I was there to rejoice, to praise and applaud
The shouts of joy from the sons of God.

I waited my turn and I came to earth
Through the wonderful channel of human birth.
The curtains were closed and the past was gone.
On the future, too, the curtains were drawn.

I live on this earth and God willed it so;
With freedom to choose the way I should go.
I must search for the truth,
I must serve and obey -
I must walk by my faith or fall by the way.

Someday I'll go back
I will answer the call.
I'll return with my record to the Father of all.
The Heavens will open and so will my heart,
There will be great rejoicing if I've done my part.

My Father, the King, in His infinite Love
Will welcome me back to the mansions above
The curtain will part, and eternity
In it's light and glory, will open to me.
