| In the Spirit
It hasn’t come And I’ve been praying. Yes you know I poured My heart out, night and day And the sweating And the crying Were distraction; As if I had no clue Just how to pray. And I thought This must be time For spirit’s groanings Could I just abase myself And let it go? Yes the scripture said If I knew not The real solution I might pray in tongues The mind of God to show. And no sooner Had I yielded To the urging As some words emerged From quite beyond my ken That I sensed A power larger Than my problem And a discourse High above the forms of men. Now the answer didn’t Come just for the asking But a peace Beyond all hoping Surely did. You were there Aware and full of consolation And your child Beneath your caring hand You hid. |
