Teaching Our ChildrenDeuteronomy 6:4-9 The Lord of God is the one and only Lord, As Our Lord God is to be loved and adored; With all of your heart and all of your soul, As with all your strength love Him whole; Keep these words in which to you I say, Deep in your hearts each and every day; Teach them to your children with the care, As you have some conversation to share; In the morning or at night while you rest, Before going to sleep or getting up is best; Let them write on the palm of their hand, Even next to the bed on their nightstand. Scripture reading is important for a child, Instilling the Word before becoming defiled; For talking to them every chance you get, In knowing the Bible as a valuable asset; Teaching them the values that it extends, As well as the timeless messages it sends; Our children are our future for to preserve, The promises of God as to why we serve.
