Little Andy Talks with God
Easter
Hi there, Mr. God. I'm so 'cited!
Easter is almost here an
I getta find the Easter eggs
The bunny hided.
I really know that bunnies
Don't lay eggs. (giggle) That's funny.
What I don't know is, why does the momma chick
Give her eggs to the little bunny?
Daddy was a tellin' me 'bout Jesus
An 'bout dyin' on the cross, one day,
An how, on that Sunday mornin',
He rolled the stone away.
He was really strong, I bet'cha,
'Cause the soldiers put it there.
But then, Jesus came out all brand new an clean,
An was walkin' in the garden, there.
Daddy showed me a picture
How he died. It made me cry.
I don't un'erstand why, but daddy says,
"And then, He just went up in the sky."
An now, he's back home, with you,
An I bet'cha you're glad he's home, an
Someday, I'm comin' by your house ta live.
Daddy says the Bible tells me how.
I can't read yet, Mr. God.
But, I can print my name a bit.
Daddy says you gotta a great big book
An I want ta put my name in it ...
So as I can live up there.
I need ta print a little better, though.
I don't want ta mess up your book.
I want ta write it good, so as you will know.
Daddy says I can ask Jesus ta take my sin away.
So, I'm askin', right now, Mr. God, please, Sir.
I'm sorry I was born ta be bad. But, momma says
She is glad ya gave me ta her.
Momma says ya carved my name
In Jesus' hand, that day. So,
When I get ta your house, I'm gonna kiss him
An love Him. That's what I want ta say.
Well, thank you, dear Jesus, for all ya do for me
An thanks for letting me talk ta your daddy.
He's really nice, like you.
So, have a Happy Easter, from little Andy.
And, O yeah!
Thanks for the pretty flowers, taday.
Bye, for now, Mr. God.
