The Love of Prayers

I feel the prayers by others sent my way A flood of warmth covers me, like oil flowing down My spirit dances and feels refreshed The prayer of others is so precious to me I pray also for them, that they feel as I do Letting the flood of God’s healing balm and love cover them We grow in strength with these prayers As our body, mind and spirits are strengthened The Holy Spirit leads us in our new day’s work This warm oil bathing my soul is what I wait and long for Let those prayers never stop coming my way As I am in great need of the prayers of others They keep me safe, straight in my walk I am weak without the love of my friends Defenseless without their prayers and covering I feel loved and warm, wrapped in comfort Strength and wisdom come flooding in As to what my Lord wants of me today Feel the arms of my Lord wrapped around His loving kiss upon my forehead The gentle push to start my journey for the day
