I Love to Pray

SYLVIA N. POLING

When do I pray?
In the morning when
I wake up
And often through the day.

How do I pray?
I think thoughts that
are happy and good and true.
I know that God is All,
And that He is good.
He is everywhere
and is Love.

He sees us as His perfect children—not bad,
or poor, or sick.
We all belong to God.
He loves us and cares for us.
I can know what is true
about God and everyone.
I can pray.

All our days belong to God.
He sends us His true thoughts.
We can feel them when we're still.
His thoughts are good.
They make our days beautiful and perfect.

When I pray I let God's thoughts
be my thoughts.

I love to pray.
