| Thank you, Jesus, for the mud I use to make my pies, an' angleworms, an' pollywogs, an' pretty dragonflies. I like the pussywillows, too; they are so soft to touch - an' the flowers in our dooryard are so pretty. Thank you much. Thank you for the little things, like kittycats that purr, an' big things too, like gran'ma. I really do love her. I guess my bruther is okay - except he pulls my hair - an' all I did was take the eyes out of his teddy bear! Mama's nice, but she sure does get mad at me sometimes. An' Daddy - he's not home much, but he's still a friend of mine. But most I'm thankful, Jesus, that you love me so. My teacher told me this at church a week or two ago. An' so I'm trying really hard to be 'specially good. I know you're gonna help me; my teacher said you would. But take a lot of time with me an' try not to be sad. I have an awful temper, and sometimes I get mad! ~Jean Calkins~ |

| music playing: "Everything Is Beautiful" by: Ray Stevens Jesus loves the little children, all the little children of the world Red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in his sight Jesus loves the little children of the world Everything is beautiful in its' own way Like a starry summer night or a snow covered winter's day Everybody's beautiful in their own way Under God's heaven, the world's gonna find a way There is none so blind as he who will not see Ww must not close our minds, we must let our thought be free For every hour that passes by, you know the world gets a little bit older It's time to realize that beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder Everything is beautiful in its' own way Like a starry summer night or a snow covered winter's day Ah, sing it children Everybody's beautiful in their own way Under God's heaven, the world's gonna find a way We shouldn't care about the length of his hair or the color of his skin Don't worry about what shows from without but the love that lives within We're gonna get it all together now and everything gonna work out fine Just take a little time to look on the good side my friend And straighten it out in your mind Everything is beautiful in its' own way Like a starry summer night o r a snow covered winter's day Everybody's beautiful in their own way Under God's heaven, the world's gonna find a way |
