I’m Jesus’ little trusting child,
I need Him every day
To shield me from temptations wild-
I’ll not forget to pray.
Refrain:
I’ll not forget to pray,
I’ll not forget to pray;
To Jesus I’ll bear my every care-
I’ll not forget to pray.
I thank Him for His loving care,
That angels near me stay;
At evening shall ascend my prayer-
I’ll not forget to pray.
And every morn, before I start
Upon another day,
I’ll ask the Lord to keep my heart-
I’ll not forget to pray.
Or should some trial come apace
I’ll hasten then away,
To ask the Lord for strength and grace-
I’ll not forget to pray.
