When I got mad today and hit my child "For his own good, " I reconciled, and then I realized my plight... Today, I taught my child to fight. When interrupted by the phone, I said, "tell them I'm not home." And then I thought, and had to sigh... Today I taught my child to lie. I told the tax man what I made, forgetting cash that was paid, And than I blushed at this sad feat... Today I taught my child to cheat. I smugly copied a cassette, To keep me from one more debt, But now the bells of shame must peal... Today I taught my child to steal. Today I cursed another race, Oh God, protect what I debase, for now, I fear it is too late... Today I taught my child to hate. By my example, children learn That I must lead in life's sojourn In such a way they are led By what is done and not what is said. Today I gave my child his due By praise for him instead of rue. And now I have begun to guide; Today I gave my child pride. I now have reconciled and paid to IRS all that I have made. And now I know that this dear youth, Today has learned from me the truth. The alms I give are not for show, And yet, this child must surely know That charity is worth the price: Today he saw my sacrifice. I clasp within a warm embrace My neighbor of another race. The great commandment from up above. Today I taught my child to love. Someday my child must face alone This fearsome undertone, But I have blazed a sure pathway: Today I taught my child to pray.
