Loving you is not enough to keep you happy and satisfied;
All my faith can’t keep you here, standing by my side.
Holding you in my arms is not enough to keep you safe and warm.
Watching you every moment can’t keep you safe from harm.

So, I pray each day, that God keeps you in His sight.
I pray that you will keep the faith and to do things that are right.
I pray that all circumstance will work out for your good;
I thank God for giving me the gifts that only He could.

The gifts of Love and Hope and Faith—Patience and Understanding.
The gift of Time to spend with you; times of dreaming and remembering…
And laughing and loving, talking and planning, sleeping and learning, growing, teaching and Praying.
