This birthday prayer is a beautiful poem that

you could share with a dear friend or family
member on their birthday.

19. I said a prayer for you today

And know God must have heard.
I felt the answer in my heart,
Although He spoke no word.

I didn’t ask for wealth or fame,

I knew you wouldn’t mind.
I asked Him to send treasures
Of a far more lasting kind.

I asked that He be near you

At the start of each new day
To grant you health and blessings
And friends to share your way.

I asked for happiness for you

In all things, great and small,
But it was for His loving care
I prayed for most of all.
