A Child's Prayer
I have a prayer to ask you Dear Lord, for I am learning how to pray
I hear the angels harps, they sing to me at night
They know I am afraid, when there is no light
You, My Jesus give me love, which I am thankful for
I know in my heart you will never leave me, You will stay forevermore.
I feel there is a secret about me, one I do not know
If only people would really see me, not tell me to let go
I pray to You this day, because you listen to children just like me
You can see my gift which I have and You also can see the real me
My cousin's, aunt's and uncle's, do not want to help me through
All my learning problems I must give to you
My mother, does not answer my questions.
My father has nothing to say
Why do I feel unwanted, so very sad today
Sometimes the angels hold me
When I cry on their wings
They are so soft and beautiful
I can fly to the stars and back
I try to be happy once again even though I lack
My Dear God forgive me if I have sinned
I never mean to, I wonder how did it begin
I am a little child, saying my prayers for the very first time
I will talk to you tomorow, please help me in this life
To live with what I have been given
Because with Your help it will be all right
Written for those children lost in adoption.
