A Prayer for You



I wish that you were here right now
but since you cannot be
I'll say a little prayer for you
To bring you back to me.
I'll pray that God will keep you
In His arms so safe and sound
And I'll think of you all the time
'Til you are homeward bound.
I'll look up at the sun so bright,
The daytime's sphere of flame,
And I'll gaze at the moon at night
And know you see the same.
Until the day you're home again
All prayers for you I'll say
And trust that God will bless you
As you go along your way.
