A Childs Prayer

How shall I wish upon a star When it’s twinkling glow from my window Seems so far? I sit alone Afraid and lonely, Wondering when the angels will bring me light; Lord, I pray to You, Please be with me and protect me throughout the night. Make tomorrow a better day, Help me do right from wrong; So that my mommy and daddy will not yell and curse at me All day long. Lord, I know that You love me, My Bible says You do; I hope someday soon, My mommy and daddy will love me too.
