~Christmas Prayer~

I said a Christmas prayer for you,

Because the season's here.

I didn't ask for riches,

But for gifts so much more dear.

I asked for joyful gatherings,

With your family all around,

And for carols to inspire you,

with their old familiar sound.

I asked for quiet moments,

In your heart on Christmas morn,

For a special time to celebrate,

The Savior who was born.

I asked for friends to send their best,

That you might know they care,

I asked for peace and love and hope,

And I know God heard my prayer.
