Lovely Lady dressed in blue-
\nTeach me how to pray!
\nGod was just your little Boy,
\nTell me what to say!
\nDid you lift Him up. sometimes,
\nGently on your knee?
\nDid you sing to Him the way
\nMother does to me?
\nDid you hold His hand at night?
\nDid you ever try
\nTelling stories of the world?
\nO, and did He cry?
\nDo you really think He cares
\nIf I tell Him things-
\nLittle things that happen, and
\nDo the angels’ wings
\nMake a noise? Can He hear
\nMe if I speak low?
\nDoes He understand me now?
\nTell me- for you know!
\nLovely Lady dressed in blue,
\nTeach me how to pray!
\nGod was just your little Boy
\nand you know the way.<\/p>\n
