The Simple Truth

My heart is filled with wonder
For my children who believed
Sweet kisses pressed to my tummy
Where a baby has been conceived

For children have a simple way
Of showing love with a sign
And their joy is my pleasure
But The Lord says they are mine

And they know about a miracle
And this life that grows in me
Starring at that special place
Hoping for a kick to see

Then ears rest ever so gently
Envisioning the little one inside
I am thinking that this baby knows
And already they are unified

For I can feel God's love in them
As their excitement fills the air
Inquisitive hands touch my tummy
As I softly stroke their hair

I thank my Lord for these children
And their precious fascination
Speaking to one who is not yet here
Forming a bond a spiritual relation

So we must truly be like them
As the children and baby will grow
And the simple truth revealed to us
That The Ways of God they know
