Family prayer song

Dear Readers,

                       

I would like to share one of my family tradition with you all. When I was a boy of 11 years old, My mom taught us a Christian prayer song to be sung at the end of our family prayer. The song goes on like this..

Lord keep us safe this night

Secure from all of fears

May angels guard us while we sleep

Till morning light appears.

We used to ask our mom as to where she learnt  this song from. She told us that she learnt it in a METHODIST HOSTEL when she was a hosteller in her younger days. We are grown up men now. I am 43 years old and I have taught my 3 kids to sing this prayer song. We sing this song at the end of our family prayer at night. When we sing this song now, I am reminded of my childhood days.  

I feel so happy that I was able to transfer this tradition of our family to my own family. I am confident that this tradition would go down to the generations to come.

Thanks for sharing my experience……
