Caregiving Kindness
Pampered with gracious blessings of kindness
Moved by the Lord’s compassion-earnestness
Our orphanage, propped through prayer fitness
Lavishes children --- bountiful goodness.
Despite attacks of human nature pain
Caused by selfishness and arrogance stain
We seek for blest peace of forgiveness reign
As Christ-like character we hope to gain.
Admonitions, stern; and reprimands, sweet
We do blend as mercy and truth must meet
Glad are we to hear them joyously greet
Hugging warmly in their thanksgiving feat.
Through patience along devoted ardor
Nursing and rearing with caring fervor
We share God’s love while trusting His succor
In shielding children from hatred’s horror.
Midst the Saviour’s kindness that reached us out
Nourishing orphans echoes faith-bliss shout
Special kids’ milestones vanquish distress pout…
Kindness* does beget kindness; there’s no doubt.
*Ephesians 2:7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
