386. Our Prayers

When you close your eyes at night
At a time when you are alone out there
Just place your fingers upon your chest
Every beat a thought of how much we care
The rhythm you feel is our voices rising
Our prayers serenading the heaven’s above
We beseech our Creator to speed your healing
Your recovery assured by our friendship and love
Though no words can express our feelings
Let your heart remind you of our intent
Just think of what you want to hear
And know that is exactly what we meant
For as you walk forward to tomorrow
Each day much better than the last
Take comfort that we’ll always be there
For together there’s nothing we can’t get past
