Because of You
Adapted from poem written by Heather Price
Because of you a child was loved.
Because of you a child believes they can reach the stars above.
Because of you a child found laughter and smiles.
Because of you a child felt worthwhile.
Because of you a child learned to love and not fight.
Because of you a child will want to read every night.
Because of you a child learned patience when someone is driving them crazy.
Because of you a child learned the value of work and to not be lazy.
Because of you a child learned persistence when the going got rough.
Because of you a child learned the gift of kind words and love is enough.
Because of you a child found comfort in loving arms
Because of you a child felt safe from words and hands that harm.
Because of you a child learned as they “play.”
Because of you a child made a difference along life’s way.
Because of you a child’s life will be forever touched in ways you may never see.
Because God used YOU to help them become the person He wanted them to be!
