Heaven's Very Special Child by Edna Massimilla
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."
His progress may seem slow
Accomplishments he may not show
And he'll require extra care
From the folks he meets way down there
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
They will not realize right away
The leading role they're asked to play
But with this child sent from above
Come 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 and mild,
Is heaven's very special child.
We love you Danny & Tricia, you are both such a blessing..........
