Prayer For Birthday
May the Lord show you
the greatness of his goodness,
that you overflow with thanks
every day.
May the Lord bless you abundantly
with rest for the heart,
power for virtue,
wisdom for life,
and patience in suffering.
May the Lord bless you
with joyful hope,
and one day
with the inexpressible joys
of eternal life.
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm on your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
May God be with you and bless you,
May you see your children's children.
May you be poor misfortune,
Rich in blessings,
May you know nothing but happiness From this day forward.
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind always be at your back,
May the warm rays of sun fall upon your home,
And may the hand of a friend always be near.
May green be the grass you walk on,
May blue be the sky above you,
May pure be the joys that surround you,
May true be the hears that love you.
I hope that you have used it full and well.
And yet another starting now, today:
Perhaps you should rededicate your life,
And give it to the Lord, who gave you yours.
For all that went before has passed behind;
Your future lies before you like a road.
And so I pray the Lord will be with you,
And dwell with you, and keep you as His own,
And walk with you, beside you, down the road.
And now I pray that He will make today
The finest birthday that you ever had.

How I thank You Lord, for the wonderful gift of life that You gave me. What a privilege to be born into this world and to be given life. Thank You for all my family, my parents and children and all the friends that I have come to love over the years, many of whom are with You now in glory. Thank You for Your many mercies and blessings that are new every morning. How great is Your faithfulness to those that love You.
Thank You most of all, for sending Your precious Son, the Lord Jesus Christ to come to earth as a little baby, so that He could live His life as an example to us all on how to live a life that is pleasing to You. But I thank You especially Lord, that He came as my Saviour, who laid down His life for me, and became the finished sacrifice for the sin of the whole world, which He paid for in full with His own life-blood. Oh Lord, thank You.
Lord, as I face another year, I ask that You would be with me to lead and guide. Give me the strength and wisdom I need as I pass through the inevitable challenges that this year will bring. And I pray that day be day, You would draw me ever closer into Your loving arms, so that I may know You more and love You better. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
