My Childhood Prayer Still Said

My Childhood Prayer Still Said

It must be said
Before the sun rises 
It may be said on your 
knees before bed
But it must be said.! 

It must be short  and sweet 
Quick to reach... God's  ears. !

A poem or a prayer a metaphors or a prose.
Quick to listen 
 Easy to speak.
Thought's from hearts...
God's ears to reach. .... 

"If I should should die before 
I wake.
" I Pray the Lord my soul to take"
" Now I lay me down  to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to Keep.!
This poem was a prayer and this prayer  was a poem.
