Notes About The Poem

For anyone, but especially, for children without a father or mother or mistreated by a parent. 

Father Forever

Jesus with His disciples teaching on a hill
Depart from evil and do good no matter how you feel
People knew He was sent from God above
They brought their babies and children for Him to bless and love

The disciples tried to send them away
Jesus rebuked them and told the parents to stay
Little ones are of Heaven's Kingdom
Let their parents bring them

Let the children come unto me
Children are gifts from God you see
He laid His hands on them and prayed
They could sense His love and were not afraid

Jesus is the same today
God sent His Holy Spirit to earth to stay
No need to be scared anywhere
Jesus, your protector is always there

Little children wherever you are
Remember God and His angels are never far
Maybe you can't see them, but that is ok
Sun, rain, snow, they are with you night or day

If on earth you have no mother or father's love
You always have a Father up above
Remember Jesus said to the children, “come to me”
I will care for you and that will forever be”
