I’m Je­sus’ little trust­ing child,
I need Him ev­ery day,
To shield me from temp­ta­tions wild—
I’ll not for­get to pray.

Refrain

I’ll not for­get to pray,
I’ll not for­get to pray;
To Je­sus I’ll bear my ev­ery care,
I’ll not for­get to pray.

I thank Him for His lov­ing care,
That an­gels near me stay;
At ev­ening shall as­cend my pray­er—
I’ll not for­get to pray.

Refrain

And ev­ery morn, be­fore I start
Upon ano­ther day,
I’ll ask the Lord to keep my heart—
I’ll not for­get to pray.

Refrain

Or should some tri­al come apace
I’ll hast­en then away,
To ask the Lord for strength and grace—
I’ll not for­get to pray.
