Children's Music and Spoken Word
A.k.a. Bertha Trover
Aunt Bertha (Mrs. E. B. Shooks) has been associated with Children's Bible Hour since 1947. It was in August of that year that she, along with her husband and 12 year old daughter, Beverly, moved to Grand Rapids from Canton, Ohio. Aunt Bertha’s prayer as she began her ministry at C.B.H. was the same then as it is today: "Dear Lord, I do not ask That Thou should'st give me some high work of Thine, Some noble calling or some wondrous task. Give me a little hand to hold in mine; Give me a little child to point the way Over the strange, sweet path that leads to Thee. Give me a little voice to teach to pray; Give me two shining eyes Thy face to see. The only crown I ask. dear Lord, to wear Is this; That I may. teach a little child. I do not ask that I may ever stand Among the wise. the worthy, or the great; I only ask that softly, hand in hand, A child and l may enter at the gate."
