First Line: For these parents
Last Line: His curly, golden head.
Subject(s): Children; Disappeared Persons; Lindbergh Baby Kidnapping (1932); Prayer; Childhood; Missing Persons


For these parents
And their child,
A nation's prayers,
A nation's fears,
A nation's hopes,
A nation's tears ...

Shadow with Thy presence, Lord,
Wherever be his bed;
Let neither hurt nor harm befall
His curly, golden head.
