FOREVER TEACHER
Teaching, no greater call, we are told,
By prophets now and in days of old.
Teach light and truth to those around
And it is one way to be heaven bound.

A teacher that puts a spark of divinity
Into a searching mind, with sincerity
And humility, is lighting the right way
To the Master, guiding souls day by day.

Help me teach, Lord, with a humble heart,
Help me with Thy pure love to do my part,
Help me speak words to enlighten and uplift,
Bless me Lord with a true teaching gift.

Then when I pass beyond the grave one day,
I pray I will hear they tender voice softly say,
Come, teach my sheep and lambs who went before,
Like you, My Name know and Me come to adore.
