A Child's Prayer
Thro' the night Thy angels kept
Watch above me while I slept,
Now the dark has passed away,
Thank Thee, Lord, for this new day.
Watch above me while I slept,
Now the dark has passed away,
Thank Thee, Lord, for this new day.
North and south and east and west
May Thy holy name be blest;
Everywhere beneath the sun,
As in Heaven, Thy will be done.
May Thy holy name be blest;
Everywhere beneath the sun,
As in Heaven, Thy will be done.
Give me food that I may live;
Every naughtiness forgive;
Keep all evil things away
From Thy little child this day.
Every naughtiness forgive;
Keep all evil things away
From Thy little child this day.
