God was a gift of the life of child,
Gentle and humble yet so meek and mild;
We take it for granted what God can do,
But through children his work will all come true.
.
The world needs us to show children our love,
With God looking down from his heaven above;
Children bring joy into the paths that they pass,
As they play in their playgrounds or out on the grass.
.
For children you see are just like you and me,
With their hearts so open for all the things they see;
Give them a toy and see what they make of it,
They are so full of life and never will quit.
.
They read and they write and learn well at school,
So that when they grow up they will be no-one's fool;
The problem is that they cost their parents a fortune,
Though the pleasure is theirs as they look to the future.
.
We need to love life and think like a child,
And enjoy things with pleasure they give for a while;
There is no need to take whatever you can,
For a girl becomes a woman and a boy a man.
.
Now kids become adults and look what have we got,
An education through childhood to all who seek God;
Great and grandparents can remember when young,
And Santa Claus at Christmas and carols they sung.
.
Signed,
Who should let lead.
