A Child's Prayer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHIH JKJK

God make my life a little lightA
Within the world to glowB
A tiny flame that burneth brightA
Wherever I may goB
-
God make my life a little flowerC
That giveth joy to allD
Content to bloom in native bowerC
Although its place be smallD
-
God make my life a little songE
That comforteth the sadF
That helpeth others to be strongE
And makes the singer gladF
-
God make my life a little staffG
Whereon the weak may restH
That so what health and strength I haveI
May serve my neighbor bestH
-
God make my life a little hymnJ
Of tenderness and praiseK
Of faith that never waxeth dimJ
In all His wondrous waysK
