A Baby's Prayer
Dear Lord, I am so little. Still, I’m not sure why I’m here.
I know I am a child of Yours; that much is all that’s clear.
I do not have the words, as yet, to tell these ones nearby
That I’m homesick for Your presence, Lord,
And so, sometimes, I cry.
For I’ve so lately come from You to tarry here awhile
That Heaven’s light still clings around
The corners of my smile.
Give them eyes to see it, Lord. Bless them as they do.
I know I am a child of Yours; that much is all that’s clear.
I do not have the words, as yet, to tell these ones nearby
That I’m homesick for Your presence, Lord,
And so, sometimes, I cry.
For I’ve so lately come from You to tarry here awhile
That Heaven’s light still clings around
The corners of my smile.
Give them eyes to see it, Lord. Bless them as they do.
And help them raise me knowing I’m a precious trust from You.
