The Chosen One

Sunday, May 3rd, 2009

I had a dream the other night
It came to me so clear
I stood before the throne of God
Afraid to come near

God said to me “I hear your prayers”
There are answers you can’t find
I’ve asked you here to talk to me
And help to ease your mind

I said, “Well, yes God, I am upset
About my special one
This punishment is awfully harsh
What have we ever done?”

God looked at me and shook his head
and said you’ve got it wrong
I sent this special child to you
because you are so strong!

I searched and searched to find someone
With love so true and rare
A parent so unselfish
That could give this special care

I try and save my special gifts
Like those you’re speaking of
For special kinds of parents
I call the “Chosen Ones”

Of all the ones to choose from
Think this I have done
A parent who deserves the best
An honor you have won.
