This poem or song was written in memory of Jovonie Ochoa, a 4 year old San Antonio boy who died of starvation on Christmas Day 2003.
A Christmas Angel: Jovonie
The Lord heard a prayer one Christmas Day
A child asked for wings to fly away
Wings that would take him far away from the world he's known
Now there's a Christmas angel assigned to hurting children tonight
He asks God for deliverance from their plight
Jovonie, no one knows their hurt better than you
May your precious memory show us the right thing to do
The Lord heard a prayer one Christmas Day
A child asked for wings to fly away
Wings that would take him far away from the world he's known
As you ride on Jesus' shoulders calling heaven your home
May your celestial view help point to children with no voice of their own
Please show us mere mortals the part we should play
Because no child should hurt on Christmas Day
The Lord heard a prayer one Christmas Day
A child asked for wings to fly away
Wings that would take him far away from the world he's known

Have heard this before...in my mind from my own son! He has no speech..but I still hear his hurt! A magnificently written piece...of art words!

You are A Christmas Angel!
Yes no child should be without in our world that is fulled with so much abundance.
GOD Bless YOU.
