[Verse 1]
Forty-three candles
Look at that glow
You walked through some stormy weather
Still you shine like gold
Another year wiser
Still got that spark
Your smile tells the story
Of your beautiful heart
[Chorus]
Happy birthday
Raven (hey hey hey) I wish you
Happiness
Health and
Blessings forever on you
Let God's love pour down like rain
May His joy keep calling your name
Happy birthday to you
Raven
I thank God that you are my friend
Every step you have been a witness to my life
All through the ups and downs
You stayed my friend, listening, and giving me great advice
Today and forevermore, I pray grace surrounds your way
[Verse 2]
Family and friends all around you
Saying “Happy Birthday
We love you”
As we sing in tune
Make a wish
Close your eyes
Feel all the love
A brighter future is at your doorstep
Opening up
[Chorus]
Happy birthday
Raven (hey hey hey) I wish you
Happiness
Health and
Blessings forever on you
Let God's love pour down like rain
May His joy keep calling your name
Happy birthday to you
Raven
I thank God that you are my friend
Every step you have been a witness to my life
All through the ups and downs
You stayed my friend, listening, and giving me great advice
[Bridge]
I wish for you more laughter
More peace
More years made brand new
More strength when there's hard times
More of your light breaking through
Every year
Another layer of your glow
And the beauty in your soul
Don't you know that
You’re a gift
You're a masterpiece
You’re a page turning novel that still has chapters to be unleashed
[Chorus]
