The CHAMPION

Sylvia N. Poling

A ball, a bicycle, a swing,
And happy friends to share them with,
That's playing fair.

Everything good belongs to God.
Can we run fast?
Can we catch the ball?

Can we swim well? Yes!
God is strong and sure,
And all we are we get from Him.

Not to push another aside,
Not to be better than another,
But to do our best because our
Father in heaven
is perfect...

That's
being
a champion.
