Christmas poem


The Gift of a Child



What better gift could we want?

This gift that God has made.

Our children, he has given us.



What better sound could we hear?

The first time they cry.

The first time they laugh.



What more could we ask?

To watch all their first times.

To see life through their eyes.



From rolling over on their own.

From crawling to walking.

From their first words.



God's true gift of love.

To give us a child of his own.

To say happy birthday, this Christmas morn.
