A BEAUTIFUL GIFT OF PRAYER

Lyrics by Bill Anderson



I said a prayer for you today
And know God must’ve heard;
I felt the answer in my heart
Although He spoke not a word.

I did not 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 give you health and blessing 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.
