Evil Thoughts

 Evil Thoughts

Dear God, not even Mother could

See all the Evil Thoughts that would

Keep stealing in my heart to-day,

When I seemed only just at play.

But oh, those Evil Thoughts crept in

Like serpents, telling me to sin.

The Evil Thoughts all left a track

Across my heart, and make it black.

I am ashamed to look and see

If Mother knows the thoughts in me.

I cannot watch her dear eyes shine,

For fear she'll see the sin in mine.

Please make my thoughts all good and pure,

And then I may be very sure

That I have true and honest eyes

Where not one thought of evil lies.

Amen

Theft

Theft 

O God, it's very hard to say

That I'm a thief, but I must tell.

You saw me take a thing away

That wasn't mine,--I knew it well.

Because I wanted it was not

The least excuse for stealing it,

Because it wasn't much, I've got

No reason for concealing it.

So please, God, help my heart to feel

The strength that honest living brings,

For only cowards want to steal,

Or covet other people's things.

May I look straight at everything

That isn't mine, respecting it.

And may my hand and heart both bring

Just Honesty, protecting it.

Amen.

Washing

Washing 

Dear Lord, sometimes my hair gets quite

Untidy, rough and mussy;

And when my Mother makes it right

I'm apt to think she's fussy.

My hand get black with different dirts,

And when no one is present,

I don't half wash; I think it hurts

To make myself more pleasant.

Please make me feel that Cleanliness

Is just a proper virtue,

And that cold water's here to bless,

And never here to hurt you.

Please show me how I always can

Do simple things, that lead to

The making of a gentleman,

And wash, because I need to. 

Amen.

Cruelty To Animals

Cruelty To Animals

Dear God, I struck my dog to-day,

He cowered very low,

And looking up, he seemed to say,

"How could you treat me so?"

And then, O God, I struck again,

My ugly wrath to spend;

I gave a speechless creature pain,

I hurt a faithful friend.

O God, it was a wicked burst

Of brutal cruelty,

To strike an animal whose first

And last love is for me.

It was a friend that has no speech

To tell of need or pain.

O God, forgive the sin and teach

Me not to sin again.

Amen
