Prayers For Children

Than I ever loved before, In my work and in my play, Be Thou with me through the day. Amen. ![]()
And for Thy care of me; O let me through this day be blest And kept from harm by Thee. - - Mary L. Duncan ![]()

Father, we thank Thee, For tender grass so fresh and sweet, Father, we thank Thee, For the song of bird and hum of bee, For all things fair we hear or see, Father in heaven, we thank Thee.
Father, we thank Thee, For pleasant shade of branches high, Father, we thank Thee, For fragrant air and cooling breeze, For beauty of the blooming trees, Father in heaven, we thank Thee.
Father, we thank Thee, For rest and shelter of the night, Father, we thank Thee, For health and food, for love and friends, For everything Thy goodness sends, Father in heaven, we thank Thee. -Ralph Waldo Emerson ![]()

Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, In earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our debts, As we forgive us our debts, And lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil, For thine is the kingdom, And the power, and the glory, Forever. Amen. ![]()
Bless Thy little lamb tonight; Through the darkness be Thou near me, Watch my sleep till morning light.
And I thank Thee for Thy care; Thou has warmed and clothed and fed me; Listen to my evening prayer. - - Mary L. Duncan ![]()
God be in my eyes, and in my looking; God be in my mouth, and in my speaking; God be in my heart, and in my thinking; God be at my end, and in my departing. - - The Sarum Missal ![]()
Within the world to glow; A little flame that burneth bright Wherever I may go.
That giveth joy to all, Content to bloom in native bower, Although the place be small.
That comforteth the sad, That helpeth others to be strong And makes the singer glad.
Whereon the weak may rest, And so what health and strength I have May serve my neighbors best.
Of tenderness and praise; Of faith, that never waxeth dim, In all His wonderous ways.

at home, at school, and at our play; And when the sun has left the skies, He watches with a million eyes. - - Gabriel Setoun Copyright © 1997-2008 |
