TEACHING MORE THAN THE ABC’S-THE HOLY ALPHABET
TEACHING MORE THAN THE ABC’S
Someone posted the following on Facebook yesterday, and I thought it was not only beautiful, but also a great way to teach the children their alphabet. In fact, it is an alphabet about the Alpha and Omega, so it serves to glorify Christ as well! I have changed it slightly.

THE HOLY ALPHABET
Although things are not perfect
Because of trial or pain
Continue in thanksgiving
Do not begin to blame
Even when the times are hard
Fierce winds are bound to blow
God is forever able
Hold to what you know
Imagine life without His love
Joy would cease to be
Keep thanking Him for all the things
Love imparts to thee
Move out of “camp complaining”
No weapon that is known
On earth can yield the power
Praise can do alone
Quit looking at the future
Redeem the time at hand
Start every day with worship
To “thank” is a command
Until we see Him coming
Victorious in the sky
We’ll run the race with gratitude
Xavier’s God most high
Yes, there’ll be good times and bad, but
Zion waits in glory, where none are ever sad!
Train up a child in the way he should go,
and when he is old, he will not depart from it!
