Prayers for your Child 

Children's Morning Prayer
Lord, in the morning I start each day, 
By taking a moment to bow and pray. 
I start with thanks, and then give praise 
For all your kind and loving ways. 
Today if sunshine turns to rain, 
If a dark cloud brings some pain, 
I won't doubt or hide in fear 
For you, my God, are always near. 

I will travel where you lead; 
I will help my friends in need. 
Where you send me I will go; 
With your help I'll learn and grow. 

Hold my family in your hands, 
As we follow your commands. 
And I will keep you close in sight 
Until I crawl in bed tonight. 

Amen. 

-- Mary Fairchild 

A Child's Prayer for Morning
Now, before I run to play, 
Let me not forget to pray 
To God who kept me through the night 
And waked me with the morning light. 
Help me, Lord, to love thee more 
Than I ever loved before, 
In my work and in my play 
Be thou with me through the day. 
Amen. 


Father, We Thank Thee
Father, we thank thee for the night, 
And for the pleasant morning light; 
For rest and food and loving care, 
And all that makes the day so fair. 
Help us to do the things we should, 
To be to others kind and good; 
In all we do, in work or play, 
To grow more loving every day. 

-- Rebecca Weston - 1890 


Children's Bedtime Prayer
Now I lay me down to sleep, 
I pray the Lord my soul to keep: 
May God guard me through the night 
And wake me with the morning light. 
Amen. 


Child's Evening Prayer
I hear no voice, I feel no touch, 
I see no glory bright; 
But yet I know that God is near, 
In darkness as in light. 
He watches ever by my side, 
And hears my whispered prayer: 
The Father for His little child 
Both night and day doth care. 


God Hear My Prayer
God in heaven hear my prayer, 
keep me in thy loving care. 
Be my guide in all I do, 
Bless all those who love me too. 
Amen. 


Child's Prayer for Protection
Angel of God, my Guardian dear, 
To whom God's love commits me here; 
Ever this day, be at my side 
To light and guard 
To rule and guide.
