So many times I look at you and just smile,
I'll carry you as far as I can mile after mile.
Never trade you for another son in the whole world
But there'll come a day when you are on your way
And you will have to chart out your own course.
Look up and see these spacious skies,
May your heart and soul and spirit arise.
We rejoice in the day your life had begun,
When you came our way, we are here to say
Happy Birthday dear Ian, son.
Nere world - never trade you for another son.
No way, no way.
Nere world - never trade you for another in the whole wide world,
No way, no way.
Well I give you my endless love,
From father to son, from Heaven above
Though we walk in this world, this earth below
Remember the word that you have heard
Sing his praises as you go.
Nere world - never trade you for another son.
No way, no way.
Nere world - never trade you for another in the whole wide world,
No way, no way.
Well I'm yours, you're mine,
We are one in the same in heart,
Both in nature and the Kingdom divine.
Reborn in His name so let us remain,
And let us abide in the vine.
Your mother so loves you, as I,
Always remember this, by and by
We've known so well the gift that you are.
Be true to your call, rise up when you fall
And don't turn away from your morning star.
Nere world - never trade you for another son.
No way, no way.
Nere world - never trade you for another in the whole wide world,
No way, no way.
