Please God, please, give me the strength
To always go that extra length.
Please God, stay with me a while
Help me go that extra mile.
I do need help, I must admit
Before I throw a mother’s fit.
Please God, tell me what to do
About the little one who’s two.
Give me patience, love, and more
Please control the one who’s four.
Someday before I go to heaven
Let me know the one who’s seven.
I don’t mean to be a hog
With all these things I’m asking for.
But please God, help me catch that dog
That just ran out the kitchen door!
