What is a baby?
A baby is a soft little hand,
curling warmly around your finger.
A baby is a lively little pair of legs,
kicking happily in the air after a bath.
A baby is a puckered and trembling
lower lip, trying hard,
oh so hard, to tell you something.
A baby is a cry in the night,
calling you swiftly
out of sleep and to its crib.
A baby is an eloquent pair of eyes,
one time dancing with glee...
another time staring at you with
sober reflection.
But above all a baby is a
priceless gift from God.
Those little hands must learn
to move in his service;
those little feet must
grow up to walk in his ways;
and those little eyes
must learn to focus on his Word.
