Lord You Asked Me To Pray

Lord, you asked me to pray And all I did was prayed for her to stay. You asked me to be faithful to You, And although I am a sinner, I believed You to be true You said all I need is ask and I shall receive So I poured my heart out to You and believed Yet, when she was sick You didn’t intervene When she was fighting for her life, You went unseen I prayed and prayed and cried my eyes dry, Still You were silent and allowed my child to die! How can I go on Lord if I feel so betrayed? Life scares me now, but of death I am no more afraid
