My Teddy bear lost a button
Oh dear! What will I do?
I will look high and low
Just because of you.
For you are precious to my heart
My darling little one.
Nothing can compare
To my little honey bun.
God was gracious and kind
When He brought you our way.
Nothing is quite like your hug
And all the cute little things you say.
For you little grandchild
Are full of bubbling cheer.
And oh what a delight
To have you oh so near.
For a little hug and chat
For a little play and a snack;
For a sleepover and fun
Before you have to run and pack.
Then off you and teddy go
Buttoned up to return home.
To your home of love
Until you come again to roam.
So fear not Teddy bear and child
For your button was found.
Sewed on tight to remain firm
Safe and sound.
We have no fear, we will not cry
For you little Teddy bear are right.
You bring comfort throughout the night
And keep me from every fright.
Although my heart truly does know
You, little Teddy, do not protect me from the dark.
For only God keeps me safe and sound
For He keeps me close to His heart.
