Roy Rogers’ Prayer
Roy Rogers and his wife, Dale Evans, were devoted Christians.
Below is a prayer written by Roy. (You might also like
The Cowboy's Prayer.)
Lord, I reckon I'm not much just by myself,
I fail to do a lot of things I ought to do.
But Lord, when trails are steep and passes high,
Help me ride it straight the whole way through.
And when in the falling dusk I get that final call,
I do not care how many flowers they send,
Above all else, the happiest trail would be,
For YOU to say to me, "Let's ride, My Friend."
