Gods Children

Go to sleep little one

Lay down your sleepy head

Close your heavy weary eyes

Away from harm and dread

Your one of Gods little children

Sent to us to make our day

So that we can love you

In each and every way

You bring joy into our lives

And you make us weep and smile

But sadly some nasty people

Can be violent and vile

They take away your innocence

For their own selfish needs

Never caring about what they do

It’s just their sickness that it feeds

To destroy a life in one so small

A crime against all humanities

The pain and suffering that it brings

Sometimes you’re the only one that sees

The damage that’s been inflicted

A body torn apart

The suffering will be always there

Deep inside your heart

But with Gods help and your resilience

You will overcome your fear

Because you will learn someday that

There are people who care

The true ones that will love you

Be there for you each day

And do their best to keep you safe

From those who would do you harm in any way

So never let despair

Take away your life, Gods gift to you

Because he’s always there on the look out

Watching everything you do

That hand upon your shoulder

The wind against your cheek

You will feel him around to give you the strength

That you will always seek

So sleep tight little soldier

Never fear that he will leave

Because you will always feel him

Tugging at your sleeve
