Poem and prayer about waiting

Friends of ours who helped jumpstart our Rwandan adoption, the Greers, were given a poem one year ago today. The poem was written by Peter's mother as a prayer for Myles, their Rwandan son. Today, friends presented their family with a song-- with the same poem as the lyrics (of course they had no idea until yesterday that it was one year ago TODAY that they received the poem as a gift. Here are the beautiful words:

"Little Myles, we think of you
With wonder, trust and longings too
As first sounds come to infant ears
May they be those that cast out fears.
May others hear your infant cries,
Oh Father, move, that none pass by,
May they wrap you in bunting, tight,
Singing softly, “It’s all right.”
Do you hear our faith-trust-sigh?
That soon dear Myles, you’ll come nigh?
Little one, what do you see ~
Mosquito net or leafy tree?
Oh God of lightness, bring the day,
Keep to him, darkness at bay.
Little one, what do you feel,
The touch of us, for this we kneel?
We pray for those who care for you,
So our embrace won’t seem so new.
Little one, our love grows strong,
This lullaby, our hopeful song.
We wait and watch with grateful hearts,
For you, this gift, which God imparts.
Do you hear our faith-trust-sigh
That soon dear Myles, you’ll come nigh?"

I ache.
