There is no special time for prayer,
One can pray 'most anywhere,
When things aren't going quite your way-
Pause a moment, just to pray...
If everything seems to bother you
And nag at you the whole day through,
To dispel those awful clouds of gray-
Pause a moment, just to pray...
If there is no hope in sight,
You see the tunnel but not the light,
Do not wander, do not stray-
Pause a moment, just to pray...
When all your efforts seem in vain,
You struggle hard but see no gain,
Do one thing without delay-
Pause a moment, just to pray...
When you feel there is no hope,
When with life you cannot cope,
God will help along the way-
Pause a moment, just to pray...
-Joseph Ferrara
