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." "Her progress may seem very slow, Accomplishments she may not show, And she'll require much extra care, From the folks she meets way down there." "She may not run or laugh or play, Her thoughts may seem quite far away; In many ways she won?t adapt, And she'll be known as handicapped." "So let's be careful where she's sent, We Want her life to be content." "Please, Lord, find the parents who, Will do a special job for You." "And soon they'll know the privilege given In caring for this gift from Heaven; Their precious charge, so meek, so mild, Is Heaven's very special child."
