God gave to us two eyes of blue
Two cheeks of rosy hue
A precious form one early morn
My child this is for you.
We took and kissed that precious bit
of Heaven came down to us
And gave to God our lives anew
And this our blessed trust!
                                                                             Louise B. Barrett 1941
