This is actually a Hymn but it seemed appropriate for the start of a
New Year.
Come As A Child
(Richard Avery & Donald Marsh)
Come as a little child,
Come with a smile of eagerness.
Greet each day as a special gift of love.
Even if you’re old and gray,
Though you’ve come a long hard way,
Come ready to sing and play and dance,
Ready to risk and take a chance,
For of such is the Kingdom,
Come as a child.
Come with an open mind,
Come through each door with humbleness.
Treat each new thought as a spark of Holy Light.
Even if you’re satisfied,
Proud and wise and dignified,
Come ready to open up your eyes,
Ready to learn and be surprised.
For of such is the Kingdom,
Come as a child.
Come with a trusting heart,
Come face the world with innocence.
Meet every one as a friend to know and love.
Even if you’re sick and tired,
Disillusioned, uninspired,
Come ready to follow and explore,
Ready to lift your wings and soar,
For of such is the Kingdom,
Come as a child.
We should always be ready to experience new things and enjoy life to
it’s fullest!!
Wishing everyone a wonderful 2012!!
