A Prayer
For Genealogists
Lord, help me dig into the past
And sift the sands of time.
That I might find the roots that made
This family tree of mine.
Lord, help me trace the ancient roads
On which my fathers trod.
And led them through so many lands
To find our present sod.
Lord, help me find an ancient book
Or dusty manuscript.
That's sofely hidden now away
In some forgotten crypt.
Lord, let it bridge the gap that haunts
My soul when I can't find.
The missing link between some name
That ends the same as mine.
