Our Little Angels

When God calls little children

to dwell with Him above,

we mortals sometimes question

the wisdom of His love.

For no heartache compares with

the death of our small child,

who did so much to make our world

seem wonderful and mild.

Perhaps God tires of calling

the aged to his fold,

so He picked a rosebud

before it could grow old.

Believing this is difficult,

still somehow we must try;

the saddest word mankind knowns

will always be “goodbye”.

So when a little child departs,

we who are left behind

must realize God loves His children,

Angels are hard to find.
