Father, I Will Reverent Be
Children’s Songbook
(1989, 2017 ed.), no. 29
Father, I will rev’rent beAnd in thy house walk quietly;Fold my arms and bow my headAnd close my eyes when prayers are said;Listen to the words I hear,For in thy house I feel thee near.May my thoughts more perfect be,That I may speak more rev’rently.Father, I will rev’rent beAnd in thy house walk quietly.
