A Sister's Prayer 2

Lord I’d like to ask you a favour
And I pray you’ll grant it too.
“Will you bless my sister abundantly
For she’s been kind to me like you?”

Protect and keep her safe, Oh Lord.
From all dangers, night and day
And if trouble times should be ahead
Have her stand strong and fearless all the way.

And if one day I go to Heaven
And I do pray Lord this will be,
When you call upon my sister
Give her a mansion right next door to me.

Now I cry out to all of heaven
How do I prove my love
The Lord replied "Without it child
There'd be no prayer above.
