Children ©

The blessings God sends every day
To help us through life's rain
Are brought by tiny messengers
With wisdom pure and plain

What joy a tiny laugh can bring
What balm in trials sore
What graciousness in clumsiness
Is crawling on the floor

How warm their wide-eyed wonder
How great their love can be
How soft and sweet in peaceful sleep
How wonderful to me

Yes, each child brings a statement
That should ring within us true
That each new entry to the world
Says God is not yet through
