And know God must have heard.

I felt the answer in my heart

Although I heard no word.

I didn't ask for wealth or fame

(I knew you wouldn't mind).

I asked to send you treasures

Of a far more lasting kind.

I asked that God be near you

At the start of each new day.

To grant you health and blessings

And friends to share your way.

I asked for happiness for you

In all things great and small,

But it was God's loving care for you
