A Child

A special gift from God above,
 a child fills our hearts with love.
As we hold them near,
 to protect them from their fears.
We wipe the tears from their eyes,
 and bring smiles under blue skies.
I can't imagine how life would be,
 with those little eyes looking up at me.
So when you see the children at play,
 remember to thank God each day.
