God Bless The Children Poem by jackie compton

God bless the children.
While they slumber in deep sleep.
For these are the days of trying times.
These are the day we should get down upon our knees.
And pray to you and ask you.
God bless the children

I can not tame the roaring sea.
I can not turn water into wine.
Nor can I races the hands of time.
Sometime I know.
Sometime I don't.
God bless the children that cry for freedom
I am only human.
Tell me father what more can I do.
For I am just a man.

I saw wrong and I tried to make it right.
I saw evil and I tried to make it good.
I saw injustice and I tried to make it justice.
Even in the shadow of failure.
My last prayer to you.
A simple one it is.
God bless the children
