Dear Father up in heaven,
how ungrateful I would be,
If I failed to thank You
for the children given me.
I’ll do my best to teach them
and to raise them in a way,
that they will live life worthy
to return to You one day.
Bless them in their journey
to be strong and never waiver,
but walk proudly in the footprints
of Christ, our loving Savior.
There are no greater blessings
that come from Thee above,
than those of precious children
to fill our lives with love.
