The Voice From Within

THE VOICE FROM WITHIN

Ten weeks ago my life began.
I am one of God's new creations.
Fearfully and wonderfully made
in God's own image and likeness.

Lovingly, He has placed me here -
chose this woman to be my mother,
knit me together in her womb:
body and soul, a human being.

I can hear my mother's voice
and the beating of her heart.
On the day that I am born
I will finally see her face.

She will hold me in her arms -
hold me tight and pull me close to her.
Then she'll smile and kiss my face
and count my fingers & my toes.

We'll be a happy family!
I'll be obedient and loving.
Wonder what God has planned for me...
Thank You, Lord, for the gift of life.

...Another week has come and gone;
Mommy's been crying so much lately.
It's hard to tell what's going on...
Somehow, I think she doesn't want me.

It hurts so much now that I know
she doesn't want to have a baby!
Lord, must I die before I'm born?
Then I would never see her face!

Mommy, please let me live.
I LOVE you, and I want to be with you, Mommy.
Don't worry, God will help us. You'll see.
Please, Mommy. PLEASE!
