Of Hope and Rhymes

For those children I had prayed

And both of them God used

Though in His plan He took them home

Hard plan that I’d still choose

---

I pray for you too, sweet one,

That your life will bear good fruit

That you live to love and glorify

Him Whose love of mine’s the root

---

Grow strong, my darling baby,

‘Til I kiss your downy head

Rocking gently in my arms

And sing you off to bed
