I saw a child who couldn't walk
Sit on
a horse, laugh and talk,
Then ride it through a field of
daisies
And yet he could not walk unaided.
I saw a
child, no legs below,
Sit on a horse, and make it go
Through woods of green
And places he had never been
To sit and stare,
Except from a chair. |

I saw a child who could only crawl
Mount a horse and sit up tall.
Put it through degrees
of paces
And laugh at the wonder in our faces.
I saw a
child born into strife,
Take up and hold the reins of
life.
And that same child was heard to say,
"Thank God
for showing me the way"...
