The Ones We Love

I said a prayer for you today

And know God must have heard

I felt the answer in my heart

Although He spoke no word

I didn’t ask for wealth or fame

I knew you wouldn’t mind

I asked Him to send treasures of a far more lasting kind

I asked that He’d be near you

At the start of each new day

To grant you health and blessings

And friends to share the way

I asked for happiness for you

In all things great and small

But it was for His loving care I prayed for most of all.
