A PRAYER FOR MY FAMILY
I pray for my parents all over this earth. Please end their pain. Do not let their suffering endure or be in vain.
No strangers are in heaven, no unfamiliar face, No foreigner, nor outsider, exists in such a place.
I remember how they loved me - vivid colors, blinding light. I remember feeling peace and warmth as they hugged and held me tight.
I pray for my sisters all over this earth. Please end their pain. Do not let their suffering endure or be in vain.
No strangers are in heaven, no unfamiliar face, No foreigner, nor outsider, exists in such a place.
I remember how we played. We loved to dance and sing, Skipping through the gardens, confiding everything.
I pray for my brothers all over this earth. Please end their pain. Do not let their suffering endure or be in vain.
No strangers are in heaven, no unfamiliar face, No foreigner, nor outsider, exists in such a place.
I remember how we’d wrestle, rolling across the sky, Laughing in the clouds, angels flying by.
I pray for my children all over this earth. Please end their pain. Do not let their suffering endure or be in vain.
No strangers are in heaven, no unfamiliar face, No foreigner, nor outsider, exists in such a place.
I remember knowing love, like I’ve never known before, Basking in the light that glows behind heaven’s door.
I pray for my family all over this earth. Please end their pain. Do not let their suffering endure or be in vain.
No strangers are in heaven, no unfamiliar face, No foreigner, nor outsider, exists in such a place.
