Song with lyrics celebrating birth of a new baby

[Frwinkley]

My DD and her husband are expecting their second child. I had the the lyrics from the song "You'll Be In My Heart" from the Tarzan movie framed after my first grandchild was born as a gift to my DD, since the song meant so much to the two of us.

I am now looking for another song so that I can do the same for my second grandbaby (gender is not known).

Any good suggestions? Doesn't have to be a Disney song, but that certainly would be terrific.

Stevie Wonder wrote "Isn't She Lovely" in honor of the birth of his daughter.
"
Isn't she lovely?
Isn't she wonderful?
Isn't she precious?
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love?
Isn't she pretty?
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been Heaven-blessed
I can't believe what God has done
Through us, He's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love?
Isn't she lovely?
Life and love are the same
Life is Aisha
The meaning of her name
Londie, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely made from love
Hey!"

Love this song! Unfortunately, we don’t know the sex of the baby and I’d like to give it to my DD before the birth

Love Rod Stewart's "Forever Young". My DH and DD almost used that to dance to at her wedding. I told them they couldn't because I would never stop crying!

"Blessed" is a lovely song!

It's a little early for Christmas, but it was the first thing that came to mind

Could you write out the lyrics for both a boy and girl and they can display the correct one once they know?

Excellent idea!
