A Child's Prayer

Prayer, like all good habits, is best learned while we are very young.

Lord, teach a little child to pray,
And then accept my prayer;
For thou canst hear the words I say,
For thou art everywhere.

A little sparrow cannot fall
Unnoticed, Lord, by thee;
And though I am so young and small,
Thou dost take care of me.

Teach me to do the thing that's right,
And  when I sin, forgive;
And make it still my chief delight
To serve thee while I live.
