Your place*

CAROLYN M. HOOK

As a snake fits its hole,
Or a turtle its shell,
So there is a place
Just for you as well.

Love makes the place
To fit perfectly,
And keeps you within it
In sure harmony.

It's not for your sister,
It's not for your brother.
God made it for you,
And not any other.

You're special to God;
He needs you, you know,
And as you grow up,
So your place will grow.
