Whatever paths you follow,
May these blessings come your way
Cherished friends and loved ones
To brighten every day,
Work that makes you happy,
Rest that makes you strong,
A sense of humour to see you through
Whenever things go wrong,
The strongest faith, the brightest hopes
That Heaven can impart,
Serenity and wisdom,
An understanding heart,
An awareness of life's beauty,
An answer to your prayers
And the blessed reassurance
That God understands and cares.
