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 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 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!
