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
