Instill in my daughter a desire for Truth
Help her to seek You in the days of her youth
Instill in my daughter a heart that is pure
That refuses to yield to temptations allure.
Instill in my daughter a longing for Your presence
Teach her to live with Holy fear and reverence.
Instill in my daughter a thirst for righteousness,
And the fruits of peace, joy, and faithfulness.
Instill in my daughter eyes with a vision
To see the world as a field with saved souls as her mission.
Instill in my daughter a love for your Word-
to carry the gospel where it is unheard.
Instill in my daughter a humble attitude
With words that overflow with love and gratitude.
Instill in my daughter a mind that is sound-
not given to fear, but where Your grace abounds.
Dedicated to my daughters Emma Grace and Ellie Faith.
