Prayers and Pray-Ers

sestets with tail rhyme

Prayers to ponder – the seventeenth of John.
Prayers for Himself – “God, glorify your Son.”
Prayers take time
Prayers for his disciples – “God, make them one.”
Prayers for us – generations unborn.
Prayers take time.

Pray-ers ask, but they listen to God too.
Pray-ers confess sins, profess faith anew.
Pray-ers make time 
Pray-ers think and thank, praise Jesus as true.
Pray-ers seek mercy, find service to do.
Pray-ers make time..
