The Gift I received a gift from a stranger, A stranger I did not know I had heard his name before, But just in passing, so I let it go I did not think it was a gift, But rather a terrible burden They said it was nothing I wanted, Of this they were certain I was told it was something bad, And more then I could bare No one mentioned it was precious, It was as if they didn’t care I sent the gift back to the stranger, Where it came from up above If only I had met him sooner, I would have seen the gift was made with love Instead I treated the gift like it was nothing, I quickly sent it back They told me I did the right thing, But they left out an important fact See the gift was made just for me by a stranger, And God was his name I had never even noticed him. Yet he loved me just the same He had created that precious gift, Each piece he made by hand to my surprise And yet I didn’t even see it, My life was based on lies When I found out what the gift contained, And realized I had thrown it away I believed I would always suffer, And be punished everyday But to my disbelief, that stranger Who I had ignored and turned away Created three more gifts for me And sent them all my way I begged for his forgiveness, I prayed and felt his love I wondered what had become of the first gift Sent from above I later learned the gift would remain With our loving God and then I would meet my baby in heaven, And receive the gift again I have no fear that I will not know Which gift was meant for me So many have been thrown away, But mine I will surely see For I have dreamed of my little boy Whose eyes were big and bright I will run right over to him, And know him at first sight I will say “Mommy loves you!” I know that is how I’ll start Then I will thank God for taking care of my baby While we were so far apart If I could just help one person, See their gift contains such love And that the life inside that little gift, Came from God above It would honor my precious baby, Whos
