For All Eternity

There’s a poem I say each evening 
When the sun retires its light 
And the darkness comes in softly 
Heralding in the pitch-black night 
There’s a prayer I say for others 
Hoping they might hear it too 
But truth is that I say it 
Because I have this love for you 

May your dreams be filled with angels 
May your angels rise on high 
May they lift your soul to heaven 
Way before the morning bright 
And if trouble ever finds you 
May you never know it’s there 
May it vanish in an instant 
And float far into the air 
If a tear should ever find you 
May it dry before it falls 
May you always hear from others 
When you need someone to call 
But most of all 
I hope you know 
These wishes came from me 
And that I’m always here for you 
For all eternity
