Say One More Prayer Please say one more prayer for him His future days are looking grim And I cannot be with him there So please say one more prayer I know there’s worry on his face A hospital is not the place To give his spirit needed care So please say one more prayer He used to play a sweet guitar In days gone by a country star His silent voice I cannot bear Please say an extra prayer Please, Lord, Bring him back to me If you should take him now, I plea Listen to my humble prayer Let me meet him There Let me meet him once again In future days at highway’s end A life eternal we will share If You will hear my prayer All these words she said to me A freind in soul and poetry I'll let her know how much I care To say just one more prayer Liz |

That was a very emotional piece. Prayer is a strong tool to work with. "It is in our aloneness that we recognize our oneness, even as the single droplet of water knows also that it is the sea."Daniel *Cassie Roseen* |

This is beautiful Liz! Brought a tear to my eye. As always, I love your writing! *A prayer I will say for him You say his days are looking grim A prayer for her is also in need The lords ear I will fill indeed* |

Liz you brought tears to my eyes. I thought this was for your husband? But you say her too, who does this speak of? BTW how is your husband doing? <*\\\>< When you can't make up your mind, Which way is right for you, Stop and softly ask yourself, "What Would Jesus Do?" |

Thank you all for your kind remarks. This poem was written for a friend of mine. It was not about my husband. To answer your question, Rebecca, my husband's surgery is set for May 10th, and yes, prayers are also needed for him. Thank you for your concern. He is resting here at home until then Liz |

With the voices of angels you ask and with God Speed I send. This is so beautiful and touching. Strength be to you as well. |
