Good thing I Prayed...

Hello!
Just thinking after prayer one day and here are some thoughts i wrote... (it's not yet edited or finished)

good thing i prayed
before i stepped out
i had a talk with God
before i opened my mouth

go ahead He said
you have nothing to fear
only a little persecution
and by the way they won't hear

good thing i prayed
and believed in my heart
no matter what happens
i've done my small part

though it's been years
and i've not started yet
good thing i prayed
now there's strength for the test

prayer is the key
to seeing things before
nothing is a surprise
to them which seek God for sure

He shows me my weakness
He shows me my flaws
He shows me His people
when on my knees i fall

prayer is the reason
my faith and joy remain
despite any confusion
or scandal or shame

good thing i prayed
for adversity is sure
words must not be special
sincerity is pure

good thing i prayed
i know i am frail
my Father He is strong
His power prevails

being hated without a cause
or for make believe reason
these things He warned me
before every season

good thing i prayed
before i went in
good thing i loved them
before trouble began

always walk in love
do your best to convey
when misunderstood
try another way


live what you teach
obey God's command
it's a good thing to pray
in His Love just stand
