Does Any1 Know How the Short Poem goes called a "Deaf Child's Prayer"?

I read it somewhere, but don't remember where. But the last two lines went something like this:








...the only words he knew,


"a ball, a fish, a top, a shoe."

I found a poem on several sites called A Deaf Child's Prayer, but it didn't have your text in it.





A Deaf Child's Prayer





Do the angels sing in Heaven, Lord?


Will I hear music there?


Or must I stand in a corner


While others join in prayer?


While I wonder what they're saying Lord,


As oft I do down here?


Must I sit in lonely stillness


While the bells ring loud and clear?


Can I read your lips in Heaven,


Lord Will I be brushed aside,


And stick my hands in pockets


Because of wounded pride?


Will all the saints there praise thee,


While I in silence wait?


Will some one up in Heaven


Help me through the gate?





Then God, who loves the humble,


Whispered in the poor deaf ear


My child, has no one told you,


There is no silence here.


Hold out your hands, my little one,


For Heaven all to see.


We've heard them pray so many times,


Each prayer reached up to Me.


See, all the angels waiting.


The gates are open wide.


Your crown of life awaits you,


And I shall be your guide.


I have a song to give you,


You'll sing both loud and clear.


And the song you sing, my dear one,


Will be the sweetest song up here.
