A BIRTHDAY GREETING
Reading edition
Your natal anniversary Once more around has crept; And, as a token of respect Will you these flowers accept From all your friends? And we do hope That they may bring delight; And shed abundant cheer and joy From every petal bright. And as another year speeds on To swell the list of Time; We truly wish that each day may Be filled with Peace sublime. And may the Heavenly Father’s grace Be with you on your way; And keep you safely ’till returns Another glad Birth-day.
