The Sacred Task


To raise a family in the Lord

Is a sacred task and calling,

And to raise them up in Him is more

Precious than any earthly treasure.


They’re loaned to us a little while

These precious little children,

And in our charge God gives each one

In His nurture and admonition.


Mistakes we make as humans do

But love covers all omissions

So long as we dedicate to Him

Each day so graciously given.


We cannot choose their path for them

Only point them in the right direction,

And train them up in confidence

That God will draw them to Himself.
