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.
PROBLEMS JUST TUMBLED ABOUT ME,
AND HEAVIER CAME EACH TASK.
WHY DOESN’T GOD HELP ME! I WONDERED.
HE ANSWERED “YOU 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,
HE SAID “BUT YOU DIDN’T SEEK.”
I TRIED TO COME INTO GODS PRESENCE;
I USED ALL MY KEYS AT THE LOCK.
GOD GENTLY AND LOVINGLY CHIDED,
“MY CHILD, YOU DIDN’T KNOCK.”
I WOKE UP EARLY THIS MORNING,
AND PAUSED BEFORE ENTERING THE DAY,
I HAD SO MUCH TO ACCOMPLISH
THAT I HAD TO TAKE TIME TO PRAY.
