A Prayer for Taylor

A Prayer for Taylor

A Poem by Donald Cole
"

A prayer for any child caught in the middle of a divorce and for the parents

"

Lord, theres a little child out there

Taylor is her name

She might be four, maybe something more

Please help her through the game

Her daddy, he does love her

Though he's not sure what to do

Lord, above all, let wisdom fall

May he find some strength in You

Her mommy, I don't know, Lord

She's never made it to the world I know

Lord bless her shoes and all she does

God give her the wisdom to show

Taylor how to live God

Cause the world don't give much grace

Lord I'd like to see them

Where I get to see You face to face

Taylor doesn't really know

In this game, she's too young to play

Lord, all I really need, is You indeed

For her parents not to put her in the way

They both have so much to learn God

Above all, Taylor's needs should be up front

Let Taylor become first for them

Be what both her parents want

She's just a little young God

To know this for herself

I know for me, what You let me see

To put my needs on the shelf

Please don't let the game take away

Cause she needs a mommy and a daddy too

I know this gives the greatest chance

For Taylor to find You

Please, don't let Taylor miss anything she needs

From either parents' hand

I know Your will for everyone

I've come to understand

Give them this understanding Lord

Let love be what comes to call

To know indeed, first is this child's need

Let love preside over all

Don C
