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 failed 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 locks.
God gently and lovingly chided,
“My child, you didn’t knock”.
I woke up early this morning
And praised before entering the day.
I had so much to accomplish
That I had to take time to pray.
