PARENT-TEACHER PRAYER
Heavenly Father—

We come to Thee for wisdom to understand our children
and patience to live, work, and share our lives with them.

Grant us power to guard their health, education, recrea-
tion, and spiritual development and to make them strong in
body, mind and heart.

Teach us to love our neighbor, that our children may
learn tolerance and that there may be peace among nations.

Free us from fear, that our courage may make our
homes a haven of security for those we love.

Strengthen us to endure whatever hardship and sacrifice
may come, and in Thy good time lift us from the burden
of war.

Fill our hearts with faith that to our loved ones in
service Thou wilt be a refuge; to our flag, a promise; to
our country a fortress.

Consecrate us to our tasks, and bless us that we may
bless all children everywhere.

GOD BLESS AMERICA

God bless America, land that I love.
Stand beside her and guide her,

Thru’ the night with a light from above.
From the mountains to the prairies,

To the ocean, white with foam.

God bless America, my home sweet home.
God bless America, my home sweet home.
