I prayed for joy
God sent me a rainbow
Sunshine light and crimson truths
Awakening my soul to shine
As bright as the dawn
I prayed for faith
God sent me pure grace
To sustain me when I pray
And when I can’t find a way
To say what I need to say
I prayed for hope
God sent me a warmth
That abides inside my soul
Coloring my world in thoughts
Of innocence, inspiration, insight
I prayed for love
God sent me a single smile
Gifted me with the pleasure of one
Who knows that the world is alive
Thriving with the dance of life
I prayed for blessings
God sent me a sense of acceptance
Of all that I encounter
Be it trial, worry or failure
He gives me His direction
I prayed for knowledge
God sent me wisdom from on high
A feeling that I could find the strength
To reach beyond my weakness
Into the heart of deepest peace
I prayed for insight
God sent me a pang of regret
A knowing that I had been selfish
With my prayers for all of these things
And I prayed… for someone else
God answered my prayers
With His gift of fulfillment
