I prayed to God
and He gave me love and care
I prayed for faith,
For He is always there
Then I prayed for hope
and He told me it was everlasting
I asked for beautiful skies
and flowers which grow
I prayed for His great love
Never to let go



I prayed to see a butterfly,
fly over the rainbow
Pink, blue and green
I prayed, Dear God
give me the will to live
May God hold me close
Until many years go by
When He takes me by the hand
Then off to Heaven I will fly



I pray God keeps me safe
As my soul and heart are His
The beauty of the earth
Can never be like the Glory
in Heaven, which is His
