Ballplayers Prayer

Where are they now?

The Ball Player's Prayer

by Hal Skinner

 

God grant me wisdom,

to tell a strike from a ball,

to know where to throw

and never to fall.

Keep me always in the base line,

running straight and true

and I'll look for your sign,

to stretch one into two.

God give me vision,

to see every pitch,

so if a player needs help,

then I will see which.

Let me always hustle,

so I'll be at my best

and take pride in myself,

in sports and the rest.

God be my strength,

when I throw the ball

when I'm far from home plate,

or against a wall.

So I never miss a base,

please guide my feet,

bring me home safely,

so my job is complete.

When I help younger players,

let me always give praise,

so they'll see you in me,

in all of my ways.

God please guide our coach,

to be fair and smart,

to teach us to be good,

let it come from his heart.

Let me take a loss,

just as well as a win,

to do any less,

is surely a sin.

As long as I can play,

let me make my parents proud,

as proud as I am,

when they yell my name out loud.

However my games end,

let me always have fun

and if Heaven has All Stars,

I want to be one.

When my games here are over

and my seasons are done,

let me play on your team.

just like your son.

Amen.
