Too Late To Pray
Sometimes it's not easy to take the time to pray
We run off with our scheduling, out into the day
We can't take the time, we're running late
The bills are overdue
So prayer gets set aside, with more important things to do
So its off to work or off to school, perhaps a manicure
And grocery shopping's on the list, that's a must for sure
But on the way to Walmart an un-expected flash
And somewhere out of no-where, you end up in a crash...
Life is fading from you, like sand from an hour glass
And now your seeing visions, of your busy past
At first you see the bright lights and someone calls your name
your not sure at this point...hoping that your sane
Then all appears as dark...and you feel a sense of loss
And somewhere now in all of this your mind takes you to a cross
Where on a hill way back in time, the Savior died for you
And then a still small voice is heard...seek me and I'll bring you through
All at once your eyes are opened....you see the light of day
And at that moment, their are tears...It's not Too Late To Pray
