Hard Enough

Did you ask God hard enough for that you want to receive And do you have faith enough to patiently believe Is your heart for righteousness for what God would say true Have you come to the door that will not let you through Have your own emotions lost their peace of mind And though not seen by others tearing you up inside Have you asked God hard enough to fix that broken pride Forgiven all trespasses setting sins aside Have you avoided troubling with silence or cunning demise Given others help with your voice or a way to compromise Have you asked God hard enough for forces not seen by eyes His Kingdom, His Power and His Glory and wait for His surprise
