thank you.


this prayer we offer
in thanks

to selfless devotion of family and friends
to lifelong bonds tested
by time
by distance
by adversity
yet you heard our cry for help
this prayer we offer
in thanks

to the quiet strength that smiles knowingly
though no trumpets declare
to prayers sent in the solitude of the heart
despite time
despite distance
despite adversity
you prayed with us in our moment of suffering
and so we pray for Blessings and Providence
for you, our family, friends. loved ones.

this prayer we offer
in thanks
to our mighty God
to our Redeemer and Savior
for rending the chains of suffering and pain
for whom
no time
no distance
no adversity
is too great to overcome!

this prayer we offer in thanks
though small may we be in Your Eyes
Your Love has enveloped us
my family, friends, my loved one.
to You i offer this prayer
for my wife's life renewed in You.
