Nothing More

I can doeth' nothing more
i've prayed and prayed and prayed;
my prayers out the door
His Mercy thus delayed.

It's scary when i drive
the windows thus do frost;
Lord, keep me alive
don't want to be so lost.

The seat is now all wet
air-con out of sync;
have mercy on my Dad
Thy mercy in a wink!

The road is hard to see
Lord! take away the rain;
busy as a bee
my prayers not in vain.

I pray the modem works
despite the heavy rain;
Lord take away the hurts
miracles thus remains.

Lord i bless thy Name
Thy mercies unto me;
take away the rain
forever bless me Thee!

End the rain in time
before we end our work;
maketh' all things fine
before we go berserk!

Safety and protection
we pray by day and night;
loving is our mission
the Lord thus shining bright!

Christ will lead us home
His promise to endure;
cover as a dome
lost, brought home thus ashore.

Forgiving us our sins
as we forgive all the rest;
trespass us on a whim
the evil we detest.

Bring us safely home
keep mama safe and dry;
prayers on the phone
we pray for brighter skies!

To Christ we do belong
His aid in every way;
never in forlorn
our prayers every day!

The rain doth stoppeth' now
all that's left are droplets;
accept it, don't ask how?
The Lord provides an outlet!

Glory to His Name
the Name above all Names!
securely in His Hands
love unto all man!

Amen!

it was so heavy that i couldn't see the road (no kidding!); i had to stop by the road for awhile while the rain poured sideways (again, no joke!); i was extremely worried for my mom and our house; but in His mercy, it slowed down, i took advantage of that window frame and sped off. surely, He is merciful and answers our prayers. Believe and it shall be done! cheers!
