This page of my spiritual verse for children is full of positive rhymes that will help to explain spiritual concepts to children of all ages. The law of attraction, past lives, self healing, why we are here etc… are all covered in fun way that children will easily remember.
The idea of writing these spiritual verse for children started because I know that my grandchildren love to read things that rhyme and they find it easy to remember them, I like to encourage them to think and talk about spiritual things and this is a simple way to do that.
There is also a new page of Spiritual Nursery Rhymes containing simple words for younger children. ‘Where Is God?’ has now moved to that page.

Spiritual Verse For Children:
Before We Were Born
Before we were both born
We lived in a beautiful place
So different from this world we know
With no limits of time and space
We didn’t need a body
To contain our energy
We were free to explore ourselves
In any way we’d like to be
We were just the same back then
Not a child and their parent
We were Beings of Love and Light
Both powerful and magnificent
We had shared many lives before this one
It’s so much fun to change things around
You’ve been my brother, sister, parent, friend
The different ways to be, that we had found
For this life that we are in now
We talked about what we would like to do
We were ready to remember who we really are
And live our lives bringing Spiritual Love through
We knew that this would be quite difficult
In a world of limits, near and far
Our goal would be to become Awake
To the truth of who we really are
This time you chose me to be your parent
To love, guide you and help you see
The wonderful, powerful person you are
Creating your world with love energy
From you my child I would learn so much
About unconditional love
You came into my life to teach me
As an Angel sent from up above
I only want what is best for you
But sometimes I can make a mistake
Like you I am learning to do my best
Together we will Awake
Spiritual Verse For Children:
Changing Hands
For older children
In Mother’s Hands
Learning to walk
You held my hand
Balance I gave
So you could stand
A step forward
On your own
No longer my baby
You had grown
Out on walks
I’d be concerned
Of your safety
Until you learned
Of the dangers
You were unaware
Until I taught you
Because I care
You looked to me
For my decisions
As you got older
You don’t always listen
But in your heart
You know my mind
My answers are there
For you to always find
My dearest child
I love you always
So I do my best
All through our days
I truly only want
What is best for you
And so I aim for
All that I can do
***
In God’s Hands
Walking through life
In God’s Hands
Balance is given
To help understand
Moving forward
With God’s Presence
No longer limited
Acknowledging God’s Essence
Out in the world
No need for concern
Always safe
Because you learn
From the dangers
You are aware
God’s perfect teachings
Are visible everywhere
Look to God
For all decisions
All through life
God always listens
With your heart
And not your mind
God’s answers are there
His truth you will find
Spark of God
Loved unconditionally
Through the years
Growth will be
Adapted through
A parents voice
Or alignment with God
Make your choice

Spiritual Verse For Children:
Create Something!
Write about something that you’ve done
Or all the ways you like to have fun
Make a list of the things you like…
Playing card games, or riding your bike
Write your thoughts and feelings down
It makes you feel better, clearing a frown
Write down something you’re thankful for
Makes you realize.. there’s always more
Getting creative, imagination takes flight
Writing a story or poem is such a delight
Even if you don’t finish, it matters not
You will still learn from the words you’ve got
Draw some pictures of things around
Lots of ideas are easily found
Copy some drawings from a book
There’s always something, if you look
Don’t worry at all if things go wrong
Remember to the human race you belong
We all learn the most from our mistakes
Practise, practise, practise… Better makes!

Spiritual Verse For Children:
Thinking
What are you thinking, right now this minute,
Is it a good thought with you in it?
Or is it a thought that you are not good enough?
You can’t do something because it’s too tough.
Are you thinking about having some fun
Playing with friends out in the sun?
Or are you thinking your friends won’t play
Because they were unkind to you yesterday
You might be thinking of your birthday treat
With all the presents and good things to eat
Or are you thinking your birthday is so far away
There is no point in getting excited today
There are good thoughts and there are bad
Some make you happy and others make you sad
If you are not sure if one is good
Does it make you feel better as it should
Try always to do your best
To think good thoughts above the rest
Whatever you are thinking, you can change that thought
Into your mind, a better one is easily brought
Although there are two ways to think
What is most important is their special link
For the more often you think in one way
Will affect what you do and what you say
Over time what you think is what you become
So think happy thoughts and you won’t be glum
Whatever you are thinking is important you know
For it will determine which way you will go
No matter what happens you always have the choice
So listen to your friendly, happy inner voice
Spiritual Verse For Children:
Why Did You Come Here?
“Why did you come here?” I asked the daisy
As I lay on the grass feeling dreamy and lazy
The answer just appeared in my mind
“I came to add to the beauty you’d find.”
“Why did you come here?” I asked the bee
Flying so fast I could hardly see
The bee turned and started to fly more slow
“I came to help the flowers grow.”
“Why did you come here?” I asked the ant
As it ran across the beautiful plant
“I was alone, but now life’s a dream,
I came to work as part of a team.”
“Why did you come here?” I asked the cat
As she clawed away on the fireside mat
She looked right into my eyes with a stare
“I came to help you become Aware.”
“Why did you come here?” I asked little Lucky
Our precious, playful Labrador puppy
“I told you before, when we were in heaven above,
I came to give you unconditional love.”
“Why did you come here?” I asked my teacher
When showing my carefully painted picture
She thought for a moment and began to say
“I came to guide you along the way.”
Why did you come here?” I asked the old man
Who was sat in the park and getting a tan.
The man smiled at me and said, “Ever since my birth
I came to enjoy my life here on this Earth.”
Why did I come here? I wanted to know
Then all these things I attracted to show
I came to…
Find beauty, enjoy life, help, guide and share
Unconditional Love and become Aware.

Spiritual Verse For Children:
You Are Unique
In all the worlds seven billion or more
There’s not another you, and that’s for sure
Wherever you go, you’ll never find two
Because there is only one of you
No one has the same teeth, eyes or hair
Your smile, your frown or the way you stare
You are so special and beautiful too
The world just isn’t complete without you
The way you sing and the way you talk
The way you run and the way you walk
All these things make you unique
No one in the world has your physic
Your unique body, you will find
Contains your Spirit and your Mind
Looking after your body is important to do
But remember, it’s not the only part of you
Your mind is an unlimited, powerful tool
Not only to be used for learning in school
You have the ability and power to create anything
With the energy of joy, what makes your heart sing
It’s important to know, what you believe you create
But don’t worry about the past, it’s never to late
To change your life, start from today
Be happy in all you think, do and say
There is the most amazing energy of Light
A part of you, though hidden from sight
You really are a Being of Light and Love
With a body that fits, covering like a glove
You can talk to this Light inside of you
It can guide your way in what to do
Sit still and be quiet and you will find
The answers will appear into your mind
Some call it your Spirit and some your Soul
It is the real you and makes you whole
For many years I have used and taught EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique as as a way of self-healing. EFT is quick and usually works immediately, it is so simple that children can use it. This verse was written to help children remember where to tap using the basic version of EFT. The ‘tapping’ part of the verse is repetitive to help children remember easier.
Spiritual Verse For Children:
Tapping
Whenever I am feeling sad
Or something has made me mad
I know what I can easily do
To feel better all day through
While thinking of what’s bad
I tap and soon I will feel glad
Within a minute or two
It’s what I like to do
Tapping around my eyes I go
With my fingers, not too slow
Above, beside and below
It’s easy when you know
Next is above my lips
Then below where my chin dips
On to the bottom of my neck
I’ll be finished in a sec
Under my arm is last
This tapping’s really fast
Even if I feel unwell
I don’t need to dwell
Upon the way I feel
‘Cos I know how to heal
While thinking of what’s bad
I tap and soon I will feel glad
Within a minute or two
It’s what I like to do
Tapping around my eyes I go
With my fingers, not too slow
Above, beside and below
It’s easy when you know
Next is above my lips
Then below where my chin dips
On to the bottom of my neck
I’ll be finished in a sec
Under my arm is last
This tapping’s really fast
If I hurt myself one day
I know just what to do and say
To help me feel better fast
Bumps and bruises don’t have to last
While thinking of what’s bad
I tap and soon I will feel glad
Within a minute or two
It’s what I like to do
Tapping around my eyes I go
With my fingers, not too slow
Above, beside and below
It’s easy when you know
Next is above my lips
Then below where my chin dips
On to the bottom of my neck
I’ll be finished in a sec
Under my arm is last
This tapping’s really fast
