Grant, oh Lord, that our children may become who you want them to be
Another option. It would all depend on the rest of the tone of the prayer.

Refugio
: I like "become" and I like "who". It goes well with what follows, about educating them and guiding them.//Very well, thanks. But Marina, you were right the first time about "who", which is the subject complement of the verb "to be", and thus not "whom".
