A PRAYER, by EDNA MAY APPLEGATE First Line: Dear lord, teach me how to pray Last Line: "not my own . . . My father's will." Subject(s): Prayer | |||
Dear Lord, teach me how to pray That I might progress day by day In Thy truth alway. May I become as a little child In thought, so meek and undefiled, Thus delivering from errors wild. And the answer came In the quiet still, "Not my own . . . My Father's will." | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...UNHOLY SONNET 11 by MARK JARMAN LISTEN, LORD: A PRAYER by JAMES WELDON JOHNSON A PRAYER FOR THE FUTURE by GEORGE BARLOW (1847-1913) DIFFERENT WAYS TO PRAY by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE PRAYER DURING A TIME MY SON IS HAVING SEIZURES by SHARON OLDS WE WHO PRAYED AND WEPT by WENDELL BERRY |
