Saint John Baptist de La Salle Laminated Holy Card
Prayer on back: Teacher’s Prayer
James J. Metcalf
I want to teach my students how—
To live this life on earth,
To face its struggles and its strife
And to improve their worth.
Not just the lesson in a book,
Or how the rivers flow,
But to choose the proper path,
Wherever they may go.
To understand eternal truth,
And know right from wrong,
And gather all the beauty of
A flower and a song,
For if I help the world to grow
In wisdom and grace,
Then I feel that I have won
And I have filled my place. And so I ask your guidance, God
That I may do my part,
For character and confidence
And happiness of heart. Amen.
“A partial indulgence is granted to the faithful who… raise their mind with humble confidence to God.”
