A SPECIAL LITTLE ANGEL

"Ill lend to you for a little time a child of mine" He said, "for you to love the whole while he lives.

He may be six or seven or twenty two or three but will you till I call him back take care of him for me?

He'll bring his charm to gladden you and should his stay be brief you'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief.

I cannot promise he will stay since all from earth return but there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn.

I've looked this wide world over in search for teachers true, and from the the things that crowd life's lance I have selected you.

Now will you give him all your love not through the labor vain Nor hate me when I come to call and take him back again."

I fancied that I heard them say "Dear Lord, Thy will be done," for all the joy the child shall bring the risk of grief we'll run.

We'll shelter him with tenderness, We'll love him while we may and for the happiness we have known for ever grateful stay.

But should the angels call for him much sooner than we planned We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand.
