Childlike trusting

Come, walk with Love along the way, 
Let childlike trust be yours today.
—Minny M. H. Ayers, Christian Science Hymnal,
No. 139, adapt. © CSBD

The scene spoke volumes—
       little children holding their parents’ hands, 
                        following along joyously in the park,
            as though they would go anywhere
                                            their loving parents guided,
                with a trust that knows no bounds.

We all can be like little children—
                                   not a care in the world,
                                         nothing to worry about,
                   having everything we need,
                          with a trust that knows no bounds.

 We all can have childlike trust
                    in Father-Mother God, divine Love,
                                                     our true Parent—
                             boundless trust,
                                    no doubts or concerns—
    assured, joyous, peaceful, steadfast.

We all can be like little children—
                  trusting we are in God’s good hands,
                        following God’s will and guidance,
                    with every need met by divine Love,
                                                now, and every day.
