Morning Prayer

I prayed to God this morning
That He might send me hope,
And then He sent His mighty Word
To give me strength to cope...

I prayed to God this morning
That He might send me joy,
And all around I heard the laughter
Of every girl and boy...

I prayed to God this morning
That He might send me love,
And suddenly I felt the warmth
Of sunshine from above....

I prayed to God this morning
That He might send me peace,
And in the clamor of the day,
I felt a great release!
