Children’s Lenten Wisdom

Ashes, ashes, all fall down

Upon their knees before their God;

Ashes, ashes, all fall down

And bare their backs for chast’ning rod.

Ashes, ashes, all fall down

Christ’s forty days to emulate;

Ashes, ashes, all fall down

Upon their sins to meditate.

Ashes, ashes, all fall down

Anticipate the Christ’s return;

Ashes, ashes, all fall down

The discipline of sorrow learn.

Soon the pocketful of posey,

Soon the Crucified will rise;

Soon the ring around the rosey,

Soon Easter anthem swell the skies.

But now we learn from children’s game

The time to smile, the time to frown;

Recurring Lent is still the same:

Ashes, ashes, all fall down.
