08 Jul 04 - 12:59 AM (#1221119) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Prayer of the Norwegian Child From: Jim Dixon Apparently PRAYER OF THE NORWEGIAN CHILD is a choral piece written by Richard Kountz and Olaf Trojargson. I found lots of places on the Internet where the song is mentioned, and lots of places where you can buy the sheet music, but no recordings or lyrics yet. Can you quote any lyrics other than the title? That might help. |

Each flower and tree tells me of thee, and praises thee Lord Jesus. Lord Jesus think on me. Make my soul like unto thee. That's all I remember of it. I learned it when I was in the Shadyside Presbyterian Church junior choir, longer ago than I care to admit. |

I never knew the name of it (or quite possibly forgot!) but I remembered enough of the words to do a search and was lucky enough to find it all here. Thank you all for printing out the words to both verses. Now maybe I can teach this song to my grandsons. :) |
