Little Leaguer's Prayer

"Optional Message Here"

Lord, give me the strength to hit the ball,

And if I do, don’t let me fall.

Help me to pick the one that’s right,

Then let me knock it out of sight.

Then let me run with deer-like grace,

Don’t let me miss, but tag first base.

Then on to second, stay with me, Lord

Cause this one out, we can’t afford.

Then let me zoom like a flying bird,

Right down the line and on to third.

Then let me slide with feet outthrust,

Across home plate in the swishing dust.

But first of all, Dear Lord, I pray,

Just tell the coach to let me play!
