I taught this song to my Jr Singing Time group yesterday. We started by just discussing prayer. I asked them the questions When? Where? and Why? Then we talked about the importance of morning prayer. I then introduced the first verse and chorus. Next week I plan on introducing the second verse. I am not sure if we will learn the 3rd verse. I might quit after the second.
Ere you left your room this morning,
Did you think to pray?
In the name of Christ our Savior.
Did you sue for loving favor,
As a shield today?
When you heart was full of anger,
Did you think to pray?
Did you plea for grace me brother,
that you might forgive another?
Who had crossed your way?
When sore trails came upon you,
did you think to pray?
When your heart was filled with sorrow,
balm of Gilead did you borrow
at the break of day?
Oh how praying
rests the weary,
prayer will change the night to day
so when life gets dark and dreary,
Don't forget to pray
