Within every child there lies a seed
Though tiny, it is rich with potential and purpose
Inside that seed is the promise of life
This is God’s gift of Grace.
Though unseen through human eyes
We know the seed exists
For God creates us in His image
This is the fruit of Faith.
As we wait, we patiently watch
Tending, loving, watering the seed
Committed no matter the cost
Our Hope keeps it alive.
Every day we toil and weed
Sometimes watering with our tears
For the seed will only thrive
In soil rich with Love.
Someday, that seed will sprout
If we are patient and do not give up
Though it be small, in time it will grow
Dazzling the world with its wonder.
So tend it well, do not grow weary
For at the proper time we will see
That tiny seed has grown to be
A tall and mighty tree.
