♥
Precious are the children,
whose innocence is blind.
No purer love is shown,
no greater can you find.

We must be ever watchful,
lest their innocence be lost.
We must raise them well,
no matter the cost.
♥
They are our future,
the continuation of a line.
It is everyone's responsibility,
yes yours and mine.

Yes precious are the children,
whose innocence we keep.
Through the time they're awake,
and through the night, while they sleep.
♥
For in God's word's, are the truth.
'Protect, feed and comfort them.',
for precious are the children.
