"For this child I prayed… as long as he liveth he shall be lent to the LORD" (1 Samuel 1:27,28). "Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast Thou ordained strength because of Thine enemies, that Thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger" (Psalm 8:2). "Train up a child in the way he should go… Have not I written to thee excellent things… that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee?" (Proverbs 22:6,20,21). "Sanctify them through Thy truth: Thy Word is truth" (John 17:17).
As Hannah
rightly understood,
This child whom
she dedicated
Would find from
God the greatest good
By being to Him
consecrated.
The Lord is
glorified by such
As He ordains
His strength in these,
For little with
the Lord is much,
With whom He
stills His enemies.
O may we
likewise seek to train
The children God
has given us
As champions He
will ordain
To be for Him
victorious.
We pray, Lord, that
each little one
Among these children
that You gave,
Will rise up as a
champion
To answer those
whom You would save.
