Heaven's
Very Special Child
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.
It's progress may seem very slow
accomplishments he may not show
And he'll require extra care
From folks he meets 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
Comes 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.
