was forwarded to me and mistakenly labelled as Prince George, son of Prince William. How good it would be for UK if that were true! However, I traced the video to its source and learned that it was a young boy in Tyler, Texas, USA reciting Bible verses to his father. You will agree with me that it is impressive! I decided to adopt the verses, with minor amendments, to conform with the NKJV of the Bible which we use. It would be good if these verses are taught to our children from young. The video can be shown in order to inspire them. Note the replacement verses under B, C, D, M, S, V and Z. As in the video, the Book, Chapter and verse need not be included in the memorisation, for a start.
