The Teacher
 
(Leslie Pinckney Hill)
 
LORD, who am I to teach the way
To little children day by day,
So prone myself to go astray?
 
I teach them KNOWLEDGE, but I know
How faint they flicker and how low       
The candles of my knowledge glow.
 
I teach them POWER to will and do,
But only now to learn anew
My own great weakness through and through.
 
I teach them LOVE for all mankind       
And all God’s creatures, but I find
My love comes lagging far behind.
 
Lord, if their guide I still must be,
Oh let the little children see
The teacher leaning hard on Thee.
