A Special Child
A MEETING WAS HELD QUITE FAR FROM EARTH;
IT'S TIME AGAIN FOR ANOTHER BIRTH.
SAID THE ANGELS TO THE LORD ABOVE,
"THIS SPECIAL CHILD WILL NEED MUCH LOVE
HE MAY NOT RUN OR LAUGH 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 A SPECIAL JOB FOR YOU.
THE WILL NOT REALIZE RIGHT AWAY
THE LEADING ROLE THEY'RE ASKED TO PLAY;
BUT WITH THIS CHILD SENT FROM ABOVE
COMES STRONGER FAITH AND RICHER LOVE.
AND SOON THEY'LL KNOW THE PRIVILEGE GIVEN
IN CARING FOR THEIR GIFT FROM HEAVEN;
THEIR PRECIOUS CHARGE, SO MEEK AND MILD,
IT'S HEAVEN'S VER SPECIAL CHILD
