The Child Within.

​We were all children, small and new,
In God's sight, we always stay true.
Today we pray, with open heart,
That simple grace will never depart.

​The child's innocence, a gentle light,
Let it guide us, day and night.
Oh, how we love to look back then,
To the joyful days of childhood again.

​Remember this truth, pure and clear:
Each child is special, held so dear.
No caste, no creed, no wealth they claim,
Almighty loves them all the same.

​Love, respect, a chance to grow,
Is what every child must know.
But sadly, here, we still must face,
Child labor steals their time and place.

​This darkness must not be, we feel,
Our duty now: we rise to heal.
To stop this wrong, we must not wait,
For every child, before it's too late.
​With all our hearts, our wishes fly,
Loads and loads of love beneath the sky.
