Will I Pray?

     
Sometimes I have so much to do
I think it must be done,
I'll work so very, very hard
From morn till set of sun,
But here is something I have found:
This really doesn't pay,
I've always found I've weaker grown
If I have failed to pray.

Sometimes 'twas something for myself,
Sometimes it was for God,
Sometimes it was for other folks
That many steps I trod.
But 'tis no matter who 'twas for,
I truthfully must say,
My faith and trust had smaller grown
Because I failed to pray.

So I am trying hard to learn
That nothing's really great
If it must take my praying time,
So praying has to wait.
It's praying makes me fit to work;
It is my staff and stay,
And work will never be my best,
If I have failed to pray.
