Luke 18:1-8
The call to pray
The ringing of a bell
Sunday morning service
Mortal sin to quell
Jesus on a hillside
Example to us all
Forget where you come from
Pride before a fall
Internal conversation
This our conscious day
But prayer demands another
Let him have his say
Let that silent symphony
Play upon your ear
And warm your heart to kindliness
Consideration’s peer
Make your heart a guest room
Welcome others in
Allow the Lord to live there
Be your kith and kin
Prayer will banish loneliness
Keep despair at bay
Help you live in peacefulness
Walk with you this day
