Patches by Kathleen Higham I saw her from a distance Her eyes were all aglow Snap, snap, snapping photos Santa sang out Ho, Ho, Ho. The children gathered near him As excitement filled the air Unimaginable was this vision More than my eyes could bear. Hospital beds were everywhere Then those in hospital clothes This certainly is like a hospital But one thing everyone knows. The Lord resides in this place And Patches is its name All the people standing there Felt His presence when He came. A parade of joy filled faces Forgetting every affliction It was God, so very God This exquisitely holy depiction. Patches is His gift of love A love only He could send Where tears and fears are shared While helping children mend. There I stood in complete awe When a tiny hand touched me I held those precious fingers Once again God let me see. Unfailing is His love for them Their little hearts carefree Patches, a home away from home An absolutely perfect place to be. Luke 9:48 "Anyone who takes care of a little child like this is caring for me." |
