Favors I Ask For You
May you always have something to smile about
for a smile becomes you so
And the warmth of love fill your heart
because anger is so cold
May you take time to see the morning
as the sun shines though the trees
And take time to ask for God's Blessing
as you get down on your knees
May your days be filled with lovely things
and your nights with pleasant dreams
And as you slumber, through your window
the lovely glow of moon beams stream
May you and yours be abundantly Blessed
with all you can afford
I know it will be so for me and mine
because we serve the Lord
Linda Browning Alicea
