A Child’s Prayer… |
|
| Now I lay me down to sleep, | |
| I pray the Lord my soul to keep, | |
| If I should die before I ‘wake, | |
| I pray the Lord my soul to take. | |
| [A few night’s ago, I awoke in the middle of the night and the second half of the above prayer / poem flashed through my thoughts. In its entirety, this was the “formal / regular” prayer I used to say when I was a child and going to bed. For whatever reason, I recalled the entire prayer and said it earnestly. It’s “funny” the things you remember – for no particular reason – as you get older. They just spring to mind… — KMAB] | |
