My Son, My Son

My son, my son

You're everything to me

My son, my son

You're all I hoped you'd be

My son, my son

My only pride and joy

God bless and keep you safe

My own, my precious boy

For all the care

And heartache life has brought to me

One precious gift

Has made it all worthwhile

For Heaven blessed

And with great joy rewarded me

For I can look and see

My own beloved son

My son, my son

You're everything to me

My son, my son

You're all I hoped you'd be

My son, my son

Just do the best you can

Then in my heart I'm sure

You'll face life like a man

My pride and joy

My life, my boy

My son, my son
