A Teacher’s Prayer |05 October 2011
Not just the lesson in a book,
Or how the rivers flow,
But to choose the proper path,
Wherever they may go.
To understand eternal truth,
And know right from wrong,
And gather all the beauty of
A flower and a song,
For if I help the world to grow
In wisdom and grace,
Then I feel that I have won
And I have filled my place.
And I ask your guidance, God
That I may do my part,
For character and confidence
And happiness of heart.
By James J.Metcalf
