Little Hermie looks around

And smiles at all he sees.

He bows his head and prays,

Thank You, God, for blessing me.

You gave me leaves to sleep on,

And yummy food to eat,

Two big blue eyes to see with,

And eight little buggy feet.

Thanks for friends and family,

Like Wormie, Buzbee, and Flo,

For Lucy and her ladybugs

And everyone I know.

Help me do the best I can

To be kind and obey.

It’s how I say “thank You, God,”

In a very special way.

So I give thanks to You, God,

For the flowers, stars, and trees,

For friends and food and playtime.

Thank You, God, for blessing me.
