Create
In Me A Clean Heart
Staring Into the Face of Youth
![]()
Sweet
face of youth, I envy thee
Child who
sits upon my knee
Untouched by
pride or arrogance
No evils now
can thee entrance.
Innocence
of a child so fair
With
radiant face and curly hair
That halos
cheeks of rosy pink....
Makes a
sinner stop and think.

A
child who once was pure and shy
And honest,
such a child was I
Too rapidly
sweet youth has fled
And brought
about a change instead
![]()
And
when I gaze into clear eyes
Of youth as
it should be
With sad
regret I realize
That dear
child once was me.
But
... youth I never can re-live
What else can
I do then?
But pray to
God He may forgive
And make me
as a child again.
