I Didn't Have Time
I got up early one morning
And rushed right into the day:
I had so much to accomplish
That I didn't have time to pray.
Problems just tumbled about me,
And heavier came each task;
"Why doesn't God help me,"
I wondered,
He answered, "You didn't ask."
I wanted to see joy and beauty
But the day toiled on, gray and bleak
I wondered why God didn't show me
He said, "But you didn't seek."
I tried to come into God's presence;
I used all my keys at the lock.
God gently and lovingly chided,
"My child, you didn't knock."
I woke up early this morning
And paused before entering
the day
I had so much to accomplish
That I had to take time to pray.
