A Pilots Prayer

author unknown

Dear Lord, please took down on me

If you should get a chance.

While your “eye is on the sparrow”

I'd appreciate a glance.

In your tower up in Heaven

As you watch the eagles soar,

You know the joy I've felt

As Your wonders I explore.

From the early morning sunrise

To the starry moonlit nights,

My simple perch near Heaven

Has revealed Your glorious sights.

But when my flight is over

And no longer there's a wait,

I pray for a smooth landing

At Heaven's Pearly Gate.

Far beyond the blue horizon

There's a “hangar in the sky"...

Your home for weary pilots

Whose spirits never die.
