"I BELIEVE FOR EVERY TEAR
AN INFANT SHEDS A TRILLION ANGELS APPEAR!"

by Judy Joy Jones



i believe for every tear
an infant sheds
a trillion angels appear
drying their eyes
holding ‘em near
bathing them in divine light
 
i believe for every child
that dies alone in the night
two billion saints gather round
holding its tiny soul tightly
to their breasts and placing it
at the feet of our lord
where it finally finds rest
 
i believe that god’s gold
can never be bought
borrowed or sold
and will remain thru eternity
and offered to the little ones
that suffered most
 
i believe one day
we shall all weep
for those we walked past
and let die
forgotten on the streets
 
and most of all i believe
that divine love
erases all and makes new
you and me
setting our spirit souls free!!
 
I believe
oh my god
i doth believe!!!!
