High on Waves

I said a prayer for you today
And then 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 for most of all.
