Thank God For Little Children Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB ADED FGHI AJKJ FLML

Thank God for little childrenA
Bright flowers by earth's waysideB
The dancing joyous lifeboatsC
Upon life's stormy tideB
-
Thank God for little childrenA
When our skies are cold and grayD
They come as sunshine to our heartsE
And charm our cares awayD
-
I almost think the angelsF
Who tend life's garden fairG
Drop down the sweet wild blossomsH
That bloom around us hereI
-
It seems a breath of heavenA
Round many a cradle liesJ
And every little babyK
Brings a message from the skiesJ
-
Dear mothers guard these jewelsF
As sacred offerings meetL
A wealth of household treasuresM
To lay at Jesus' feetL
