~ Little Child ~
I said a
prayer again today
And asked the Lord with love
Why would he send such little ones
Then take them back above
He then answered me so softly
So ever sweetly in my ear
My child it would not be the same
If they were never here
He told me that he sent them
To make a hard heart soft
It teaches us to love unconditionally
No matter what the cost
Though they were here so briefly
Their touch to us was grand
A heart did melt when they were born
And you held their little hand
But tell them to remember
The same happened to me
When my father had to sacrifice
Me upon that tree
I know they are confused
When things happen this way
But tell them to look up
And I'll take their cares away
I know it isn't easy
For them to understand
So I'll be beside them always
To love, and hold their hand
I weep too when these small wonders
Leave earth so suddenly
But remember they're in heaven
Right back home with me
