WHEN I PRAY..

WHEN  I  PRAY..

When words break the  quiet stillness  sound..
Revered silence breaks with whispered words profound..
 
I lift my thoughts and praise to thee..
My spirit groans in sympathy..

I lay before the Throne of Grace..
My burdened soul  lay prone before this Holy place...

I have touched and stirred the
waters deep..
I will stand and walk at Christ's command ..
My soul , my spirit ,they 
are complete..


My burdens shed as I  speak to Him..
With praise I honor all I have within.

He takes each thought and prayer from me..
His answers I rest assuredly..

All  pain  and doubt secured with Him..
As I lift in praise where once was grim..

No looking back where darkness is..
I bask in Light, His presence gives...

No longer do  I sit at Bethesda  pool..
To wait and linger  like a superstious    fool ..

I bring my prayers to the Most Holy Place ...
Because He tore the Vail to the  Throne Grace..

John 5: 5-9
Hebrews 10: 19-24
