Praying with Children: Wherever I May Wander

Lord,

I find myself praying

the words of hymns these days.

I remember when I first heard

this hymn.

I was moved to tears.

What a comfort to know 

and sing of your presence 

wherever I wander in life...

Wherever I may wander,
Wherever I may be,
I'm certain of my Maker's love;
God's care is over me.
God made the great high mountains,
And made the wide blue sea;
God made the sky where airplanes fly;
God made the world, and me.

Throughout the whole creation
I see God's loving care
For everyone in every land,
God's children everywhere.
Wherever I may wander,
Wherever I may be,
I'm certain of my Maker's love;
God's care is over me.

Amen!
