I got up early one morning
And rushed right into the day
I had so much to accomplish
That I didn't have time to pray
Issues just gathered about me
And tougher became each task
'Why doesn't God help me?'
I thought
Only to realise I didn't ask
I wanted to see joy and beauty
but the day toiled on grey and bleak
I wondered why God didn't show me
And then I realised that I didn't seek
And then I prayed to him
Day in and day out.............
And when I woke up early this morning,
And paused before entering the day,
I had so much to accomplish
Along with the ample time to pray!
