Sometimes life does not appear to be fair You've been hit with news that brings despair. While I know you have been tempted to swear You have handled it all with a sense of flair. A smile remains even with all that you bear. The joy of the Lord you continue to declare And the love of Christ you boldly do share. While I wish I could be with you there, Know that I am here with a heartfelt prayer.
