Heaven's Very Special Child

A meeting was held far from earth

'It's time again for another birth'

said the angel to the Lord above

'This special child will need much love'.

Her progress may seem very slow

Accomplishments she may not show

And she'll require extra care

from the folk she meets way down there.

She may not run, or laugh, or play

her thoughts might seem quite far away

In many ways she won't adapt

And she will be known as handicapped.

So let's be careful where she's sent

We want her life to be content

Please Lord find the people who

Will be special for you.

They will not realise 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 this gift from heaven

Their precious charge, so meek, so mild

Is 'Heaven's Very Special Child'.

The baby in the photo looks like an angel, so precious and beautiful.  I agree with the other Mom, the prayer warms my heart.
