Children

---

Only a boy, with all of the cuts and bruises
yet your thoughts and questions are so deep
only a boy, who’s smiles and pranks amuse me
and yet your bedtimes prayers are oh so sweet

Want you to know
I love you so
I can’t imagine my days without you
want you to see
God chose you to be
a very special son to me

Only a boy, with pockets full of rocks and wrappers
yet your heart is tender, soft and pure
only a boy, playing hard and fighting harder
and yet you’re still so young and so unsure

Want you to know
God loves you so
You can’t imagine what the Father has for you
Want you to see
want you to believe
you are a special child to God and me
