Family Prayer 

“Family Prayer,” Children’s Songbook of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 189

Reverently

1. Let us gather in a circle
And kneel in fam’ly prayer
To thank our Heav’nly Father
For the blessings we all share.

2. Let us thank him for our mealtime,
For clothes we daily wear,
For parents, home, and fam’ly,
For his kind and loving care.

3. Oh, may we always serve him,
In thought and action too,
And humbly kneel at prayer-time
As so many fam’lies do.
