Chris Listens to God

Betty Beal Metzler

Christopher liked to spend the night at Grandma's. It was fun to sleep in the room that used to, be his mother's. And after he'd played a while with Grandpa, and brushed his teeth, Grandma would tuck him into his warm, clean bed and sit beside him while they said the prayer Mary Baker Eddy wrote especially for little children.

Father-Mother God,
Loving me,—
Guard me when I sleep;
Guide my little feet
Up to Thee. Miscellaneous Writings, p. 400;
