Lyrics
Little Girl
Daddy?s pride and Mother?s pearl
You?re laughter a precious gift to our world
Black-bean eyed, Angel Child
Precious One
Shining down the gift of God?s own Son
Bringing His light to everyone
Through your smile, Angel Child
He gave the gift of this little child
A gift we held and cherished for too short a while
A gift of love sent from above
Little Angel Child
Little One
Stay here with us for through your love
You?re watching and loving us from above
All the while, Angel Child
Blessed One
Take our prayer to heaven and the Father there
Stay here in our hearts keep us aware
The love He sent to us through your smile
C/
You?re a special one? God?s Angel Child
You?re a special one our Angel Child
