The act of prayer is surrounded with much mystery Prayer to God can change the course of history Men first began to call on God many years ago This is recorded in Genesis four and 26 you know
I don't know whose prayer to God was the first Maybe it was for water to quench a mighty thirst But I thank the Lord that this one paved the way So many others who followed can to God pray
Saints' prayers are full of odors stored in golden vials Some are ones I prayed during my troubles and trials Angels add incense to these prayers of the saints They are presented to God who never slumbers or faints
At times I've prayed and the Lord answered right away At times I've prayed and the answer never came my way But I will keep on praying to God who reigns on high The answer will come today, tomorrow or bye and bye
