A Prayer for my Friends
Dear Lord if I could only be 
        Worthy of one wish from Thee ,
I would not ask for wealth or fame –
         For I have more in Jesus’ Name;
I would not ask for homes and lands –
        My treasuries lie in Jesus’ hands;
I would not ask for health or food –
        For Thou dost give me all that’s good ;
But I would that I could see ,
       Just how the greatest friend to be 
To see Thou’st given me to love ,
       Both here and in our Homes above –
That , Lord , the love Thou hast given me 
      Might fill their life and soul , that they
Will never question , never fear ,
     My love for them is just veneer –
But man each time I clasp their hand ,
     Feel friendship true , and understand 
That of Thy many gifts I see ,
     They  are the precious ones to me .
AMEN !
