The Kids of Kericho!

Dear friends, I want to share a wonderful poem written for the children I minister to in Kericho. This poem was written for the Missions of Hope, by my good friend Stuart, from England. He has such a heart for the children and we appreciate so much his prayers and the prayers of his lovely wife, Michelle.

THE KIDS OF KERICHO!

MANY HAVE NO PARENTS

THEY HAVE NO PLACE TO GO

STRUGGLING FOR SURVIVAL

THE KIDS OF KERICHO

MY HEART IS FULL TO BURSTING

I WANT THE WORLD TO KNOW

AND SAY A SIMPLE PRAYER OR TWO

FOR THE KIDS OF KERICHO

IF I WAS TO WIN THE LOTTERY

THATS IF I HAD A GO

I KNOW THERE'D BE A BIG FAT CHEQUE

FOR THE KIDS OF KERICHO

I PRAY FOR PASTOR JONAH

MY LOVE FOR HIM DOES GROW

I SEE HIS HAPPY SMILING FACE

WITH THE KIDS OF KERICHO

I SIT HERE IN MY WHEELCHAIR

IN SURROUNDINGS THAT I KNOW

BUT MY HEART IS THERE IN KENYA

WITH THE KIDS OF KERICHO

BEFORE I LEAVE THESE PASTURES

I PRAY MY STRENGTH WILL GROW

AND FATHER GIVE ME PLENTY

FOR THE KIDS OF KERICHO
