Lagu ini diperkenalkan oleh seorang teman sekantorku, Lanny DJ, sekitar tahun 2000an (aku lupa tepatnya). Ketika ia menyanyikan lagu ini, ia juga memberikan syairnya sehingga kami yang mendengar bisa membaca dan mencoba belajar menyanyikannya. Meski aku saat itu aku belum bisa menyanyikannya, tetapi syair lagu ini menyentuh hatiku. Sejak saat itu hingga hari ini, aku selalu menyimpan syair lagu ini. Sekitar 2 tahun lalu, aku baru mendapatkan kasetnya, sehingga aku juga bisa mendengarkan lagunya, sambil meresapi artinya dan menyanyikannya.
Before you
had a name, or open up your eyes,
or anyone
could recognize your face,
you are
being formed, so delicate in size,
secluded
in God’s safe and hidden place
With your
little tiny hands and little tiny feet
and little
eyes that shimmer like a pearl,
He breathe
in you a song, and to make it all complete
He brought
the masterpiece into the world
You are a
masterpiece,
a new creation He has formed
and you’re
as soft and fresh as a snowy winter morn,
And I’m so
glad that God has given you to me,
Little
lamb of God, you are a masterpiece
And now
you’re growing up, your life’s a miracle
Every time
I look at you, I stand awe,
because I
see in you a reflection of me
And you’re
always be my little lamb of God
And as your life goes on each day,
How I pray that you will see
Just how much your life has meant to me,
And I’m so proud of you, what else is there to say
Just be the masterpiece He created you to be
