May they have the faith of Abraham,
May they have the boldness of Paul,
May they have a heart like David, always seeking God.
May they have the wisdom of Salomon,
May they have the patience of Job,
May they be a leader like Joshua, always full of hope.
May they have the courage of Daniel,
May they have the love of John,
May they know Your voice like Samuel and always obey God .
May they know Your voice like Samuel and always obey God .
Father God, bless my sons, May they grow to be men of God.
(from a song I learned when I was expecting my first son M.)

Such great encouragement for me & and my husband with two young (very busy!)boys.
Wonderful prayer...we just celebrated my oldest son's 11th birthday yesterday. Wish I had seen this before. Thank you for sharing, I will be printing this in my 'Momma Journal' for my boys!

I would love to know how to find the rest of the lyrics / music to that song! What a wonderful one it would be to teach our children!
Just beautiful! Thanks for posting!
Warmly,

So nice to meet you♥
Thanks for all your comments, the lyrics are by Integrity Music "Bless my little boy" by Nancy Gordon. It is a tape that I got when I was pregnant with my first son.. please come back!. Norma
