~ Prayer For A
Daughter ~
Heavenly
Father, You've
answered always,
my feeble trains
of thought...
down the
highways,
alleys, and
byways,
though Your path
wasn't always
sought...
You've always
blessed me
richly,
and Your love
for me is free,
not one penny
did it cost,
the ride to You
from me.

The gifts I have
are many,
not one of them
deserved...
You, my friend,
are always
steadfast,
when chaos fills
my world.
Then, You
blessed me one
more time,
and a daughter
came to be.....
Oh! The depth of
joy untold,
this gift from
You to me!!!
You alone, my
Holy Master,
above all, and
no other......
bestowed me with
the priceless
gift
of being this
child's mother.

Whom else could
I entrust the
care
of this precious
little child?
Hold her in Your
gentle warmth,
walk by her side
each mile.
Bathe her in
Your loving
care,
answer when she
calls,
oh, watch o're my
priceless
privilege,
Father of us
all!!!
