“Two little hands, two little feet,
A tiny little boy so soft and so sweet.
He came to earth in the usual way,
But life was short, God called him away.
Two little hands, two little feet,
Two little hands that I held in mine.
Never to run, and never to play,
Or to be curious in a little boy way.
Two little hands, two little feet,
Ever so loved and ever so sweet.
Beyond the clouds, beyond the sun,
Those hand and feet have heavenly fun.”
