The prayer

A prayer to pray now

Lord, Your Word says people sing because of who You are. I want to be one of those people. Singing as I walk. Singing as I do my homework. Singing in my heart even when my mouth is closed. I love some of the songs at church. I do not love all of them. But I can sing with my life. When I do not feel cheerful, You can still give me joy. Make me the kind of kid who hums through the day, carrying a tune everywhere I go. Amen.
