ON THE WINGS OF PRAYER
Just close your eyes and open
your heart,
And feel your worries and cares
depart,
Just yield yourself to the Father
above.
And let Him hold you secure
in His love.
For life on earth grows more
involved
With endless problems that can't
be solved
But God only asks us to do our
best,
Then He will "take over" and
finish the rest
So when you are tired, discouraged
and blue
There's always one door that
is open to you
And that is the door to the
"House of Prayer"
And you'll find God waiting
to meet you there
And the "House of Prayer" is
no farther away
Than the quiet spot where you
kneel and pray
For the heart is a temple when
God is there
As we place ourselves in His
loving care,
And He hears every prayer
and answers each one
When we pray in His name "Thy
Will be Done"
And the burdens that seemed too
heavy to bear
Are lifted away on "THE WINGS
OF PRAYER."
