A Child’s Prayer

                                                    Now it is time

                                                             to go to sleep,

                                                    Do not cry and

                                                             do not weep,

                                                    Far away may

                                                             angels guide,

                                                    Little child

                                                             on heavenly ride,

                                                    To kingdoms far away

                                                             and then,

                                                   To eternal kingdoms

                                                             found within.
