Analysis of My Prayer for a Friend
May you hear the special words, God sends to you my friend.
You are so dear to him. May God whisper words of peace in your ears,
show you the road to courage and contentment. When you close your
eyes each night, for blissful sleep, know God has touched you as they
close, "Saying be brave." As God takes you in his loving arms, trust he will
give you peace and good health. Each day holds promise of life and
happiness for you my dearest friend,
