THE SMILE OF A CHILD

The Smile Of A Child

Somewhere today a child needs to smile

Who has shed secret tears a long while

How great the hurt and pain she feels

And she's asking, "Is God real?"

                                                                                            ~*~

Somewhere today is a precious dream

Of a place where love is the flowing stream

This child's heart now full of sorrow

Has hope of a brighter tomorrow.

                                                                                            ~*~

Somewhere today a child needs a smile

As she's faced circumstances harsh and hostile

A smile, a hug, a listening ear from true love

And then she'll gladly sing to God above.

                                                                                           ~*~

Somewhere today a child needs to know

Of Jesus Christ and how He loves her so

He said,"Let the children come to me."

For Heaven's kingdom is for such as these.

                                                                                           ~*~

Somewhere today a child needs to smile

Needing a true friend to aid her through her miles

So let God's name today be glorified

As we inspire the smile of a child!

                                                                                            ~*~

And He took the children in His arms, placed His hands on them and blessed them. Mark 10:16(NIV)
