From The Heart Of A Deaf Child

                                                     FROM THE HEART OF A DEAF CHILD

What a welcome I received when I arrived on earth

People all around the world were excited by my birth

After nine months of growing the day finally came

For me to make my entrance and receive a brand new name

Everyone was happy their hearts were full of cheer

Until the doctor told them that I couldn't hear

All the joy I had seen when I came into the light

Was now interrupted by faces filled with fright

My parents could not hold back tears but I could clearly see

They didn't care that I was deaf I knew they wanted me

They knew God had special plans to use me like I am

Whether I can hear or not I'm still his precious lamb

As I grow up in the world as hard as it may be

I know the Lord is on my side and he will help me see

That I'm a special masterpiece created out of love

Sent to earth to fulfill the plans of God above

Even though I can't hear I'm as special as can be

And with God's help I'll do my best to make you proud of me

One day when the Lord comes back and we all rejoice

I'll be singing praise to him when I first hear his voice
