| Children dream of a
world at peace from a place every child should see Here, God's power thaws frozen hearts and forgiveness comes gentle and free Glints of silver kissed the skies every star fell into embrace 'twas then this little child of Yours dreamed only of seeing Your face She listened well to raindrops sing and watched angels dance in debut A heavenly stage of music and song brought a loving glance from You Here, playful waves adorn the seas and teem with new energy found The artist paints with tender hands and children whirl round and round Life's empty shell stood motionless taking solace on a distant shore Its dying prayer now uttered in song oft heard in the ocean's roar A solitary angel danced once more a pirouette on only one foot You alone must have put her there in the music box where she stood Stars gleamed like twinkling gems their sparkle, kissed softly the night Perhaps they're here only to serve as beacons for birds in flight We skipped along the promenade and saw faces with a thousand eyes As the endless waves tickled my feet their laughter erased my cries Often I'd dream of ancient stories like the sweet one of little Moses That someday, I too might find a baby amongst reeds and roses Deep in the hearts of children the joy of their childhood stays Its timeless treasures a comfort in countless childlike ways When children of the forgotten past tell of how God's gifts were grown How blessings now bestowed on them reap a harvest of Love, once sown. |
