My Treasures

Dear Lord, I treasure the moments

At the starting of my day,

When all is quiet and peaceful

And I can kneel and pray.



For in the turmoil of life

The moments are so very few,

When I can steal away

To spend some time with you.



I thank you for each blessing, Lord,

I’ve had more than my share,

And if I should ask for more,

It would be for moments, spent in prayer.



For I’d rather have the moments,

More than fame or wealth.

So precious are the moments

When I have you to myself.



I count each tiny moment

A treasure beyond compare.

Worth more than gold or silver

Are my moments with you in prayer.
