Special Children

SPECIAL CHILDREN

Reach out
And know the joy of living!
Reach out and bless us
With your gracious giving
Of laughter and delight!
Look a butterfly stops
To kiss your hand
Though it interrupts his flight.

Dear, precious child-
Special in your way,
God knew I needed you
To help me learn to pray
With faith, with love
And to daily expect sweet blessings
From above.

Each child is precious,
Each one dear,
But round your bed at night
I sometimes think
That angles oft appear
To reach out
And touch your innocent face-
A celestial spirit
Lighting briefly, like a butterfly,
And leaving with us Father's grace.
