The Children



Given to us~ as a gift from God

Their story~ yet to be told

They only know~ what their ears can hear

Only know~ what their eyes behold

May we always~ feed them trust and love

May they learn~ to walk on solid ground

With the guidance~ from above

May their unique story~ be found




World Children Day
God Bless Them All
