Poem


The Poem
I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had much to do.
I had to hurry and get things done..

So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees ran to grab my keys.
My Christian duty was now done
My soul could rest at ease.....
All day long I had no time
To spread a word of cheer
No time to speak of Christ to friends,
They'd laugh at me I'd fear.
No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need

But at that moment I hit my knees and began to cry.
I went before the Lord,
I came, I knelt with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God! held a book;
God looked into my heart and said,

If I bring you to it, I will bring you through it.

Happy moments, praise
Difficult moments, seek
Quiet moments, worship
Painful moments, trust
Every moment, thank

Christ is the reason for Christmas.
