God Made A Child Start
By
Alice C. Bateman
I’ve told you a hundred times in my head
A thousand times in my heart
I’m carrying your baby
God made a child start
I need to tell you in person
Before the entire world knows
My body is changing daily
Can’t wear all my new tiny clothes…
I saw you this morning
My heart is still pounding
But no time
To tell you the news
My legs are still weak
My face is still flushed
And all from
Three minutes with you
But somebody else is always around
We don’t get one minute to talk
We need to get out, maybe go for a coffee
Or even just go for a walk
The next time that I see you
I’m going to take your hand
And place it on my tummy
See if you understand…
I think that you will feel her
This child that is yours
That one night that we made love
We opened up the door
To create a child of beauty
To create a child of Love
And all we can do is thank Him
Who sent her from Above
