Heavenly Father, are you really there?
Added text (verse 2) © 1989 IRI
And do you hear and answer every child's prayer?
Some say that Heaven is far away
But I feel it close around me as I pray

Heavenly Father, I remember now 1. 1. Keep the commandments; keep

Something that Jesus told disciples long ago the commandments!
"Suffer the children to come to me" In this there is safety; in this there is
Father, in prayer I'm coming now to thee peace.
He will send blessings;
Pray, he is there He will send blessings.
Speak, he is listening Words of a prophet:
You are his child
2. [Chorus]
His love now surrounds you
Keep the commandments.
He hears your prayer
In this there is safety and peace.
He loves the children
3. 2. We are His children; we are His
Of such is the kingdom, the kingdom of Heaven

And do you hear and answer every child's prayer? Hold to His promises;

Kindness Begins with Me

145b
I want to be kind to ev’ryone,
For that is right, you see.
So I say to myself, “Remember this:
Kindness begins with me.”

1. Jesus walked in wisdom; Jesus grew in

truth.
He showed love to God and man while in His
youth.
Jesus wants to guide me. Jesus shows the
way,
Calling me to come and walk with Him each
day.
2. I can grow like Jesus. I will try each day—
Promising to walk His path and there to stay.
Standing by my Savior, safe within His care,
Step by step I’ll follow, and His love I’ll share.
3. I will trust in Jesus. I will hear His call.
He will never leave me, even when I fall.
Jesus gives me power, lifts and comforts me,
Helping me to live and grow eternally.
Chorus: As I walk with Jesus to my home
above,
He will bless me with His Spirit and fill me
with His love,
Change my heart forever and help me clearly
see.
I will walk with Jesus, and He will walk with
me.
