A Back to School Prayer

O Eternal God, bless all schools, colleges, and universities, that they may be lively centers fo sound learning, new discovery, and the pursuit of wisdom; and grant that those who teach and those who learn may find you to be the source of all truth; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

God bless our open eyes that see the morning sun. God bless our feet throughout this day, wherever they walk or run. Bless our hands and find for them the kindest things to do. God bless our hearts and all our thoughts and keep them clean and true. Bless us, dear Lord, in all our play and keep us safe from harm. And bless these little lives of our that rest within your arms. Amen.
