The Child's prayer

The Child's Prayer

Oh my son, who is on earth
Your presence is heaven
It gives life worth
Hallowed
be thy name
My life and my living
Will not put you to shame

Your kingdom comes
From what you create
Your will be done
You will make it great

Give me this day
Wisdom
from your head
As I work hard to make
Your daily bread

Forgive me my impatience
And the misery I do
As sometimes I channel
My frustrations on you

Lead me out of darkness
With the brightness of your smile
The glistening of your eyes
Gives me peace
For a while

You deliver the goodness
That turns evil away
You are my kingdom
In your name
I pray

You give me the power
The strength
And the glory
Forever and ever

Your father,
A man
