She's A Child,, She's An Angel
(I sponsor a girl from Colombia through Compassion International; her name is Yuri. We always get letters from her and they are so special. I just got one yesterday and it brought tears to my eyes because she told us how much she loves us. Sponsoring a child is one of the most rewarding experiences. I recommend everyone doing it. There are a few good organizations besides Compassion such a s World Vision. If you get a chance check www.compassion.com. We also began sponsoring a child from Brazil. here is something I wrote about Yuri.)
She's A Child, She's An Angel
She comes from a far away place,
A place that I have never been
But I think of her deep down within
Her smile can melt anyone's heart,
I just want to hold and squeeze her
It hurts to be so far apart
She's a child, she's an angel
She's a child that's been sent by God
If you'd see her smile, you'd see why
This angel is special to me
Just look in her eyes; so very shy
You'd see how happy she seems
This angel whose name is Yuri
Every night before I go to sleep
I ask God to keep her safe
And her family in His arms please keep
And I dream there will come a day
That I will hold her in my arms
And say these words that I need to say
I'd tell her
She's a child, she's an angel
She's a child that's been sent by God
I love to see her smile, it makes me cry
This angel is special to me
And when I look in her eyes; so very shy
I'd see how happy she seems
This angel whose name is Yuri
(Interlude)
She's a child, she's an angel
She's a child that's been sent by God
If you'd see her smile, you'd see why
This angel is special to me
Just look in her eyes; so very shy
You'd see how happy she seems
This angel whose name is Yuri
