THE LITTLE MAIDEN'S PRAYER.

SHE knelt her down so meekly,

Believing none were nigh;

Clasp'd her little hands so sweetly,
And then, with upturn'd eye,

Said, "Father! please to bless me
Through the long, long day,
And keep me all so safely
Till I come again to pray."

She simply ask'd forgiveness
For evil she had done;

LO

Then said, "Now I'm forgiven,
Through Christ, God's own dear Son."

She pray'd for loved ones near her,

For friends both far and wide;

Said, "I want Thee, God, to bless them,

And all the world beside."
