A red thread to China was cast today
From us to a child so far away.
This thread symbolizes an attachment of hearts
That distance alone can’t keep us apart.
His mother and I are caught in a chase
That time alone will bring us to face
This loving young child we want so much to greet
With love in our hearts before we did meet.
This tiny, thin thread may stretch, tangle or fray
But our love for him grows stronger each day.
Through the test of time it won’t break or sever
He’ll be part of us forever and ever.
With oceans between us, the distance is spanned
By a love that is greater than man could have planned.
For God in His mercy loved him and us
And decided our family would be a great plus.
So for now we’ll just love him and pray every day
That God keeps him and loves him for us till we may
Travel to China, that land of great past,
To the side of our son, to hold him at last.
