And I knew God must have heard
I felt the answer in my heart
Although he spoke not a word
I didn't ask for wealth or fame
(I knew you wouldn't mind)
I asked for priceless treasures rare
Of a more lasting kind.
I prayed that He'd be near to you
At the start of each new day,
To grant you health and blessings fair,
And friends to share your way
I asked for happiness for you
In all things great and small
But that you'd know His
Loving care
I prayed the most of all.
