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 PRAYERS AND SAYINGS OF THE MAD FARMER by WENDELL BERRY DAT GAL O' MINE by JAMES WELDON JOHNSON |
