"A Child's Prayer"

Our kids sing this song during their concert, and it's a great reminder of who we are helping on this journey...and my purpose for being here.

[Everytime I hear the kids sing it, I think of the little boy I sponsor in Kenya and wish I could meet him someday....]

I was alone, I was hungry

Would someone come, does anyone care?

Days would go by, no one to hold me

Longing for love, does anyone care?

Just like a dream you came to my rescue

Glad you weren't too busy to hear this child's prayer

Chorus: 

You brought me hope

You brought me healing

You brought a smile into my life

With your loving touch,

My heart is mending

Here in your arms I'm resting tonight

Not just existing, now I'm living

My life has a purpose, my heart has a song

Days full of joy, nights warm and cozy

Nothing to fear, I'm no longer alone...
