A Boy Named Kenton by Kathleen Higham I met him at a baseball field And Kenton was his name We talked about each player He had a love for the game Waiting for a practice ball He watched the players intently I told him of my Christian friend Then he informed me so gently Most of the Astros love the Lord I've heard some of them speak His words were strong and precise This young boy was not meek He told me of his love for God And I was truly mesmerized I am thinking he is just a kid But why am I so surprised The Lord has blessed me often Today it was this young man Professional players everywhere But God had another plan Never knowing who God will send But I crossed his path today Forever engraved in my heart The words I heard him say Expressions of love for Jesus Christ Brought joy beyond my imagination Knowing I'd write about this child As he spoke with no hesitation For we must be as little children And Kenton was an absolute dear His message was a perfect gift In him Your Voice was clear Lessons come in many ways And God will send them all A young man waits so patiently At last he gloves that ball Then his father shares a moment About his son and a precious day When this Godly child so unselfishly Gave all those baseballs away |
