Every time a child smiles, the Lord looks down and smiles too.
Every time their hearts are lifted, He knows just what to do.
He sends the Holy Spirit to muster up inside,
A little bit of love and hope to break down pain and pride.
Burdens once handled alone before are made lighter by their Friend.
He'll be with them through good or bad--right to the very end.
And even though we might not see the rewards of the love we choose to share,
Every bit of selflessness will show them that we care.
It may not always seem like much--the little things we do.
But isn't it nice to know the Lord looks down and smiles because of me and you?
