Help Your Children. Lord

Help Your children, Lord,
Teach them how to pray,
Open up their hearts,
Give them words to say ...

When their nights grow dark and dreary,
When their hearts grow weak and weary,
When their souls grow cold with sorrow,
Help them face each new tomorrow.

Help Your children, Lord,
Let them know Your way,
Shine for them a light,
Hold them every day ...

When their paths grow worn and shaded,
When their minds grow scarred and jaded,
When their lives grow heltered-skeltered,
Help them find in You a shelter.

Help Your children, Lord,
Teach them how to pray ...

... and hold them every day.



-Lighthouse Bob
