“When I Pray”
I speak the words of my petition
To my Master, all omniscient,
Looking for intercession.
The words I have unimportant
Without Jesus’ intervention.
The incense of my askings
Waft up to the gates of heaven.
There is no use masking
My cries to whom my soul is given;
His love for me is everlasting.
Not my desire, but His be done;
It is not for me to say.
He gave His Son for my pardon;
And He hears me when I pray
Until the last victory is won.
