God's Masterpiece From graceful lilies pure and white, God fashioned lovely skin, Forget-me-nots he chose for eyes, Then formed your baby chin. He took a tulip bright and red -- 'Twas one that did not fade; A softer, sweeter little mouth Before was never made. Another flower next He used -- A rosebud, pink and fair; Touched it to your dimpled cheeks And bade it blossom there. Then with His magic fingers picked Two morning glories white; Curled and shaped your little ears, Soon they were fastened tight. That crowning bit of golden down Will soon become your hair; He gathered pollen from the flowers, And sprinkled it with care. For dainty little fingers dear And precious, tiny toes, He used slender daisy frills; A snowdrop made your nose. This world and all within it He created here for man; But Baby was "God's Masterpiece" Since time and life began! |
