Smiling, as Your Children

No reason for our frowns
we should be ever smiling
filled with the joy we profess
as loved children of God

Smiling, as your children
your grace pouring down on us
even in the bitterness of the world
your loving shining in us

To share your message
the hope for all mankind
redemption in the gift of Christ
and the promise of next time
