My Heart Will Leap

My child is born with special needs -- should I cry I am not prepared to deal with this at all Lord, how could I ever think to let her die For my heart will leap, as soon as she will crawl I'll forget the questions, nevermore ask why Just devote myself to baby -- have a ball! I will love my child so, more than she can know And we'll both be very happy, as WE grow

Wise words and a unique privilege to raise a child with special needs. They often bring to mind and meet our own special needs.
