A Parent's Prayer for Their Children
Written for mothers and fathers who want a simple daily prayer for their children rather than a historical text, since no single traditional prayer fits every family's circumstances. It can be prayed at bedtime, before school, or whenever a parent wants to entrust a child to God.
Lord, you have given me these children to raise as your own. Watch over them when I cannot, and give me the patience and wisdom to guide them well. Keep them safe from harm, strengthen them in hardship, and draw them ever closer to you. Let them know they are loved, by us and by you, today and every day. Amen.
