A Night to Remember


Recently many people came together to bless special needs students in a wonderful way.
This is for them.


For a special night,
They came together.
People of all ages,
Preparing in advance,
Armed with joy and faith,
Knowing God would provide,
All in its place.

The families did come,
Each with their child,
Each one with a burden,
As life finds its meaning,
In carrying weight,
Each weight bringing weakness,
Yet difficulty brings truth,
For where we are weak,
He is made strong.

Other youth came forth,
With the light of their hearts,
Filled with the God’s fire,
Drawing souls like a magnet,
Reaching to those in need,
For when we minister to the least,
We are ministering to God,
While in his warm embrace.

Hardly noticed by the masses,
In the shadows of misfortunes,
Lifted up for this night,
They glittered in their gowns,
And in fine pressed suits,
They shone as like stars,
To be presented in glory,
Receiving the gift of joy.

The students receiving them,
Spoke their language of smile,
As the wordlessness of love,
Is understood by all creatures,
They became dressed like royals,
Becoming angels to the weak,
Lifting up silenced voices,
To sing joy before God’s throne.
