His Children

We watch from across the room Their joyful faces shining like stars Their smiles broader than any ocean Given to us as a gift. We watch from across the room We see love in their hearts We see peace in their minds Given to us to raise. We watch from across the room We teach them about life We teach them from Your Word Given to us by You. We watch from across the room We see them all grown-up You come and take them They are Your children We watch from across the room They are gone, the pain immense But You are still there Come to help us through.
