A Mother's Prayer | |
I do not ask riches for my children, Nor even recognition of their skills; I only ask that Thou wilt give them, Hearts completely yield to Thy will. |
|
I do not ask for wisdom for my children, Beyond discernment to Thy grace; I only ask that Thou will use them, In Thine own appointed place. |
|
I do not ask for favor for my children, To seat them on Thy left hand or Thy right: But may they join the throng in Heaven, That sing before Thy throne so bright. |
|
I do not ask perfection in my children, For then my own faults I would hide; I only ask that we might walk together, And serve our Savior side by side. |
