Bless the little ones,
those of meek and mild
cradle them with learning there is more
than this place that they call home.
Give them the courage to survive
and rise above all that they might see.

{Ease the pain of the battered and bruised,
bestow love to heal those who are abused.}


As they walk to distant horizons
guide their journeys and brighten their days,
with the stars held in celestial heavens
to light the path and lead the way.

Let them watch the wonders of life unfolding
found within the rising sun of each new morn,
growing in the knowing that each dawn brings a gift
holding many treasures to be found.

{Teach them with your grace the lesson
that there is more than just lies here within...
the earth bound.}


Impart upon them pure passion for the day!
Grant them the knowledge of what love is for!

Protect them from the indignities born of mankind,
spare them the ignorance’s of what we have left behind.
Fill their hearts with compassion for their fellow man
relinquish to them growth in understanding.

{Suffer not the children the realities of what we have become.}

In the glow of spirit, may their souls learn to fly free,
allow them to achieve all that they can be.

I lift my voice unto the heavens up above;
I am but one, please hear my plea
when through my words of faith
I now come to thee,
and say a prayer...
for the children.

Dear Donna, thank you for sharing this tender, beautiful prayer. This is a precious gift for all those who care for children and for those who care for the future of Mother Earth, having especially in mind the wellbeing of the new generation.
Love, Margherita
