Who basked in heaven's golden, glorious light.
Some of the saints were singing, while some others had the task
Of keeping heaven's grandeur sparkling bright.
The Savior called some trusted aides who happened to be near,
"You see those little babies over there?
Their moms chose to abort them and ignored the tears of those
Who wanted to adopt them, give them care.
"I'd like for you to gather all the babes and little ones
Whose life was interrupted by a knife
Or with some other instrument, a surgeon chose to use
To end these babies' only chance of life."
The aides planned their recovery routes so carefully that day;
They wanted to be sure all babes were found.
Some babies were asleep, while others rocked in someone's arms.
Some boys were chasing little girls around.
The Savior had invited all the saints to come to see
The sight of unborn babies that He'd planned.
The saints who lined the streets that day were in for a surprise,
Of babes performing in a marching band.
The babes were dressed in gleaming white, as pure as driven snow.
Their smiles matched the brilliance of the sun.
They marched like little soldiers, shoulders squared, and heads held high,
And each was someone's daughter, someone's son.
Besides the ones who picked their favorite instrument to play
Were choirs of little ones who chose to sing,
"All hail the power of Jesus' name, let angels prostrate fall
And call Him Lord of all, for He is King."
The babes were met with cheers and shouts while waving at the crowds.
From every place on Earth, these darlings came.
If we could know how many babes have felt abortion knives
We'd fall from all the weight of mankind's shame.
The march went on for days and days, a most angelic sight;
But in the crowd, some murmuring began.
How could a mother acquiesce to murdering her child
And see it dropped in a disposal pan?
The march was stalled by one small boy who raised his hand so high,
"It's true that we were born in pain and shame.
But here in heaven, we are loved by everyone we meet
And God Himself calls each of us by name."
