A Little Prayer

I ONCE STOPPED BELIEVING IN GOD
FOR HIM I WOULD NOT APPLAUD
HE TOOK SOMEONE VERY SPECIAL AWAY
SO MY HEART DID GO ASTRAY
I COULDN'T BELIEVE HE WOULD TAKE SOMEONE SO YOUNG
SOMEONE WHO'S LIFE HAD JUST BEGUN
INNOCENT AND SWEET
SOMEONE YOU COULD NEVER MISTREAT
A PRECIOUS ANGEL SENT FROM ABOVE
ON WHITE WINGS OF A DOVE 
TOOKEN AWAY IN THE BEAT OF A HEART
SEPERATED, TWO SOULS TORN APART
I WAS ANGRY AT HIM FOR THE PAIN HE CAUSED ME
WHY COULDN'T HE LET HER STAY, JUST LET HER BE?
WHY WAS IT SO IMPORTANT FOR HIM TO HAVE HER?
WHY DID HE WANT TO SEE ME SUFFER?
WHAT HAD I DONE SO WRONG?
WAS MY BELIEVE NOT STRONG?
QUESTIONS IS ALL I EVER ASK
IS AN ANSWER TO GIVE ME SUCH A HARD TASK?
MY HEART TELLS ME THAT HE NEEDS ANGELS TOO
ANGELS TO WATCH OVER EVERYONE, INCLUDING YOU
AS LONG AS I KEEP BELIEVEING IN HIM
THE LIGHT TO HER SOUL WILL NEVER GO DIM
I WILL BE ABLE TO SEE HER AGAIN ONEDAY
AND IN MY ARMS IS WHERE SHE'LL STAY
SO AS I CLOSE THIS LITTLE POEM
LET ME SAY IF YOUR HEART IS EVER LONESOME
LOOK TO THE HEAVENS AND LOOK FOR GOD
HE'LL ANSWER YOUR PRAYERS IF WITH NOTHING MORE THEN A NOD.
