Analysis of Our Littlest Angel
Your life on earth wasn't meant to be
A few short hours are all we had with thee
Your guardian angel from Heaven above
Was sent here to earth to lead you with love
To that beautiful place where God does reign
And nobody there has to feel any pain
You were greeted as soon as you got to the gate
By people who loved you and knew of your fate
That Jesus had wanted you sooner than most
To be there beside Him and be a good host
To help guide others who need to rest
In that Heavenly Kingdom that all know is best.
