The Meaning of Prayer
« on: December 12, 2002, 07:06:33 AM »
A breath of prayer in the morning
Means a day of blessing sure;
A breath of prayer in the evening
Means a night of rest secure;

A breath of prayer in our weakness
Means a clasp of a mighty hand;
A breath of prayer when we're lonely
Means Someone to understand;

A breath of prayer in our sorrow
Means comfort and peace and rest;
A breath of prayer in our doubtings
Assures us the Lord knows best;

A breat of prayer in rejoicing
Gives joy and added delight,
For they that remember God's goodness
Go singing far into the night.

There's never a year nor a season
That prayer may not bless every hour,
And never a soul need be helpless
When linked with God's infinite power.
