29.10.10

Praises and cheers, to He who hears

When a prayer is said
He listens intently
And delivers His promise of aid
Through His powerful army

When a sheep is lost
A shepherd is sent
To find the sheep at all cost
So He may nod in content

When a child weeps
An angel descends
To hold the child in his sleep
So that His love transcends

When a discouraged soul sighs
Or sings a song of lament
He offers comfort to their cries
And puts an end to their torment

When the rich would not share
With the poor who are hungry
He sends His servants who care
To make the poor their beneficiary

When His soldier is in danger
Of falling to the veiled enemy
He calls upon the wind and the weather
To overturn the wicked conspiracy

When a serpent tries to foment
Discord between brothers and sisters
Mediators are sent
To tear down walls between faith and colors

Just as no evil ploys hides from His eyes
No sincere cry for help escapes His ears
If your heart is true
And His will you do
In His timing, He answers your prayers
