’Twas the weekend before school, and all through the halls,
The classrooms were ready, with signs on the walls.
The desks had been placed, the supplies put away,
The school was just waiting for that first big day.
The teachers were praying, their hearts full of cheer,
Asking God to guide every student this year.
The pencils were sharpened, the lesson plans set,
And maybe a few things were still being prepped yet. 😉
The lockers stood waiting, the playground was still,
The school was so quiet…almost a little too still.
But this week will bring all the laughter and noise,
The smiles, the backpacks, the girls and the boys.
We’ve prayed for these students, we’ve prayed for their days,
For wisdom and kindness and hearts turned to praise.
We’ve prayed for our teachers, for strength from above,
To lead with compassion, with patience and love.
And from our school’s heart, there’s one thing we know:
God has been faithful each step of the road.
This week we’ll open our doors with delight,
Ready to welcome our students with joy and excite.
So rest well, dear families, the first day is near
A brand-new school year is finally here!
May God bless our classrooms, our teachers, our crew,
And every precious student He’s entrusted to us, too.
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord.” — Colossians 3:23
