Family (Prayer
Oh Lord, be gentle with her. Be merciful and kind;
For she was loved so dearly By those she left behind.
Walk slowly with her, Lord As you take her to the Promised Land.
Stay forever by her side, Sing sweetly in her ears And when she cries of missing us Gently wipe away her tears. And, Lord, when what weve asked is done, We pray our hearts youll touch. And let her know we love her so, And we miss her just as much.
