A poem by George MacDonald

A Father To A Mother

________________________________________________
Title:     A Father To A Mother
Author: George MacDonald [More Titles by MacDonald]

When God's own child came down to earth,
High heaven was very glad;
The angels sang for holy mirth;
Not God himself was sad!

Shall we, when ours goes homeward, fret?
Come, Hope, and wait on Sorrow!
The little one will not forget;
It's only till to-morrow!







[The end]
