God is Never Beyond Our Reach
By Helen Steiner Rice
No one ever sought the Father
And found He was not there,
And no burden is too heavy
To be lightened by a prayer,
No problem is too intricate
And no sorrow that we face
Is too deep and devastating
To be softened by His grace,
No trials and tribulations
Are beyond what we can bear
Is we share them with our father
As we talk to Him in prayer
And men of every color,
Every race and every creed
Have but to seek the father
In their deepest hour of need
God asks for no credenials
He accepts us with our flaws
He is kind and understanding
And he welcomes us because
We are His erring children
And He loves everyone,
And He freely and completely
Forgives all that we have done,
Asking only if we're ready
To follow where He leads
Content that in His wisdom
He will answer all our needs.
