A Prayer

ELISABETH VAN GULDEN

Father, I do not ask for worldly honors,
I do not ask for wealth or fame;
But Father teach me to pray.

Father, I do not wish for selfish satisfaction,
I do not wish for human praise;
But, Father, teach me to obey.

Father. I do not seek to be rewarded,
I do not seek to be beloved;
But, Father, teach me to love.
