Heaven’s Special Child
A meeting was held quite far from earth
“It’s
time again for another birth”
said
the angels of the Lord above.
This special child will
need much love,
His progress may seem
very slow;
accomplishments he may not show.
And he’ll require much extra care
From all the folks he meets down there.
He may not laugh or run or play;
His thoughts may seem quite far away.
In many ways he won’t adapt,
And
he’ll be known as ‘handicapped’.
So
let’s be careful where he’s sent,
We
want his life to be content.
Please, Lord, find the
parents who
will do this special job for you.
They will not realize right away
The leading role they’re asked to play.
But with the child from above,
Comes stronger faith and richer love.
And
soon they’ll know the privilege given
in
caring for this child from heaven-
Their precious child so
meek and mild
is “heaven’s very special child”.
