THE GIFT OF PRAYER 

The most precious gift
you will ever receive;
Is prayer from someone
who in Jesus believes.

It's not wrapped with ribbons or bows,
And few people hear
and few people know.

But it's written
in the chronicles of heaven.
Each prayer muttered,
is a special gift given.

And yes,
I said a prayer for you tonight;
For you to be calmed
from all your fright.

For healing,
and you to learn of God and His ways,
And be able to look up at Him
and give Him honor and praise.

I can't see your face
and barely know who you are;
But I know one thing,
each muttered prayer will go so very far.

Oh my brothers and sisters in Christ;
Each prayer you whisper
is the greatest gift you will find.

It comes from the love of a pure heart;
That will last forever and never depart.

Someday we will all meet face to face;
We will be able to give such a warm embrace;

As the Kingdom of Heaven
allows us to share;
In person what we can only do in prayer.

The most precious gift you will give;
Is a prayer,
a sweet smelling fragrance
so others can live.

By laying down your life
in such a simple way,
Gives more to another
than any gift will ever convey.

Oh prayer,
no it does not have ribbons or bows;
It costs us our time,
and our love that we show.
