Poems (Eddy)/A Verse

by Mary Baker Eddy

A VERSE

Mother's New Year Gift to the Little Children

ATHER-Mother God,  Loving me,—Guard me when I sleep; Guide my little feet   Up to Thee.

To the Big Children

Father-Mother good, lovingly   Thee I seek,—  Patient, meek, In the way Thou hast,—Be it slow or fast,   Up to Thee.
