I love this prayer written by Hannah More Kohaus (1745-1833). It is a great prayer to hang on the refrigerator or in your office cubicle to help maintain a positive outlook. I also think this would be fantastic to stick on the inside cover of your child’s notebook. If you read one of my previous posts entitled, “The Black and White Horse Behind Those Trees,” you will understand when I say this would have worked wonderful in the car with my children on the way to school each morning! If you haven’t read it, it can be viewed in the archives and was posted 02/07/2011.
Prayer of Faith by Hannah More Kohaus
God is my help in every need;
God does my every hunger feed;
God walks beside me, guides my way
Through every moment of this day.
I now am wise, I now am true,
Patient and kind, and loving, too;
All things I am, can do, and be,
Through Christ the Truth, that is in me.
God is my health, I can’t be sick;
God is my strength, unfailing, quick;
God is my all, I know no fear,
Since God and Love and Truth are here.
