"Suffer Little Children"

Suffer the little children to come unto me,
and forbid them not:  for of such is the kingdom
of God.  Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall
not receive the kingdom of God as a little child,
he shall not enter therein.

 The Holy Bible ~ Mark 10:14-15

My Prayer

Lord, grant me the faith of a little child,
Help me to trust and obey.
 Put a guard on my heart,
And a seal on my lips,
To keep me from going astray.

 For Satan is waiting, he knows I am weak,
He wants to lure me away.
Lord, without you, I'm bound to fall,
Temptation is greater each day.

Reach out your hand, and lead me today,
 Walk beside me, show me the way.
One thing for sure, I want, never to be,
Separated, Dear Lord, from Thee.
