Little
Angels
When God
calls little children
to dwell
with Him above.
We mortals
sometimes question
the wisdom
of his love.
For no
heartache compares with
the death
of one small child,
Who does
so much to make our world
seem wonderful
and mild.
Perhaps
God tires of calling
the aged,
to His fold,
So he picks
a rosebud
before
it can grow old.
God knows
how much we need them
and so
he takes but few,
to make
the land of Heaven
more beautiful
to view.
Believing
this is difficult
still somehow
me must try,
The saddest
word mankind knows
will always
be "good-bye".
So when
a child departs
we, who
are left behind,
must realize
God loves children,
Angels
are hard to find.
