LITTLE ONE

You were loved so much
but as it seems
you were only God's to touch.

In our selfish ways
we long to hold you in our arms
but only the wisdom of the Father
can shelter you from harm.

Even though on this earth
we can never walk hand in hand;
God will one day
allow your family to band.

And on that great day
when we cross Heaven's shore
our pain will cease;
tears will be no more.

So for now Little One
dance across the stars.
Play with the angels,
know the love of our heart.

God will give us the grace
and strength to understand
until we meet at last
in His heavenly land.
