Every Child is a Gift!
Gazing at this child –
I hold so close to me,
a miracle from God –
that was surely meant to be.
So innocent and fragile –
with her little runny nose,
wondering if she will fit into –
all those brand new clothes.
So precious as I hold her –
gives me such a lift,
knowing that in my heart –
that every child is a gift!
This awesome gift from God –
oh! so sweet to behold,
that when she was conceived –
He also gave to her a soul.
As I lay her down to nap –
the thought comes to my mind,
that we too are His children,
we have been all the time.
Though infant, teen, or young adult –
or senior citizens, we sit,
children of God we are called –
and every child is a gift!
So, as children of the Lord –
brothers and sisters we are too,
joined together by His love,
that shelters me and you.
A love so tender, a bond so strong –
in His plan we all fit,
one can only smile with joy –
because, every child is a gift!
