Kneeling
"You know that feeling,
When you are kneeling
Saying prayers,
To that God who cares
For something that your really want,
Hopeful in Him your confidant
To calm your anxiety,
By rewarding your piety
And lighten your heavy heart,
From blessings prayers impart
To know that all will be ok,
And that emptiness will go away
With kneeling words unspoken,
From a heart that is open
That we may receive,
All that we need
But prayer requires a belief,
In God to provide relief
For those critical decisions before you,
Or whatever else is a heavy burden too
When you can’t handle it by yourself,
For some answers aren’t just sitting on a shelf
Life is complicated to understand,
Which is why we look to God commands
To help us find our way,
As we kneel and pray
That all that should be,
Will be
Today,
And everyday
