- From graceful lilies pure and white
- God fashioned lovely skin;
- Forget-me-nots He chose for eyes,
- Then formed your baby chin.
-
- He took a tulip bright and red,
- 'Twas one that did not fade;
- A softer, sweeter little mouth
- Before was never made.
-
- Another flower next He used -
- A rosebud, pink and fair;
- Touched it to your dimpled cheeks
- And bade it blossom there.
-
- Then with His magic fingers picked
- Two morning glories white;
- Curled and shaped your little ears
- Soon they were fastened tight.
-
- That crowning bit of golden down
- Will soon become your hair;
- He gathered pollen from the flowers
- And sprinkled it with care.
-
- For dainty little fingers dear
- And precious, tiny toes,
- He used the slender daisy frills,
- A snowdrop made your nose.
-
- This world and all within it
- He created here for man;
- But baby was "God's Masterpiece"
- Since time and life began.
