Christmas Prayer

By Kathy Lou Waskett 1 min read

I thank you God

for this Christmas day.

The blessings, this year,

that I have come my way.

Thank you God for family and friends.

May they stay safe and healthy

as this year comes to an end.

I am adding some

more prayer requests.

So others may also

have peace and rest.

I pray for those who have never known

The love of God or a happy home.

I pray for those who will not see

love and family around a Christmas tree.

I pray for those who have lost their way.

Needing hope and cheer this Christmas day.

I pray for those still wishing on a star

Praying for someone that has strayed far.

I pray for those who live in pain

Quality of life is hard to maintain.

I pray for hope throughout the land

That God will hear us and save our land.

I pray for more than silver and gold.

For those who are grieving

and have lost someone

they used to hold.

Those in hospitals or nursing homes

Soldiers overseas that are all alone.

So many things I pray today.

One more thing to add if I may.

That I can experience this Christmas day.

The voices of my children of whom I pray.

Thank you God for all you do.

These Christmas prayers I send to you.

Love and Teddybearhugs!
