A Breath Of Prayer (Poem)

A Breath Of Prayer

A breath of prayer in the morning
Means a day of blessing sure;
A breath of prayer in the evening
Means a night of rest secure;
A breath of prayer in our weakness
Means a clasp of a Mighty Hand;
A breath of prayer when we're lonely
Means Someone to understand.
A breath of prayer in our doubtings
Assures us the Lord knows best.
A breath of prayer in our sorrows
Means comfort and peace and rest;
A breath of prayer in rejoicing
Gives joy an added delight.
For they that remember God's goodness
Go singing far into the night.
There's never a year nor a season
That prayer may not bless every hour,
And never a soul need be helpless
When linked with God's infinite power.

Frances McKinnon Morton

Luke 18:1  And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18  Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
