It may be six or seven years or twenty-two or three but will you, till I call him back, take care of him for me? He'll bring his charms to gladden you and should his stay be brief, you'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief. I cannot promise he will stay since all from earth return, but there are lessons taught down here, I want this child to learn. I've looked this wide world over in search of teachers true and from throngs that crowd Life's lane I have decided You. Now will you give him all your love nor think the labor vain and hate Me when I come to call to take him back again? I fancy that I heard them say Dear Lord, Thy Will be done. For all the joy this child will bring the risk of grief we'll run, we'll shelter him with tenderness we'll love him while we may and for the Happiness we've known forever grateful stay. And should the angels call for him much sooner than we planned we'll brave the bitter grief that came and try to understand. Made in Italy!
