I've Got a Boy, He's Got a Father

This is a poem I wrote when my first son became a believer. It's fading from the notebook I scratched it in so I thought I better put it somewhere more permanent.

A father's love is deeper than

     one can understand

The Father Himself gave me a son

     designed by His own hand

Before his birth God made it clear

     the child would not be mine

My son is now my brother

     We share a Father divine
