Pray

Angela Lorine Smith

Is trouble rampant on all sides?
Have violent explode everywhere?
Do you have a feeling of helplessness?
Well, pray to God for help.
Have your finances taken a
turn for the worst?
And you can’t even afford
to pay for a ride to church?
Did you look and look and
couldn’t find work?
Well, pray to God
He have all the perks.
Pray
Speak to God
Express your love
Request for help
Tell God how you felt
But, whatever you do believe
When you pray if you want to receive
anything from Gods grace.
