Children are a Gift

‘Behold, children are a gift of the Lord’ Psalm 127:3

A Gift from the King

Reflecting on each baby’s birth,
The beginning of their life on earth,
The day when I beheld in awe,
What did their future have in store?

The potential that each new life brings,
A gift for us from Christ our King,
Not just for us, but all the broken,
His love for us through life is spoken.

Each child is given for a purpose,
Not one life on earth is surplus,
Each child is made in God’s good hands,
Their life is part of God’s great plan.

Each new child can fulfil the goal,
The reason for their heart and soul,
If the One they seek is Jesus’ face,
They’ll make the world a better place.
