Daily Prayers Are Heaven’s Stairs

The stairway rises heaven high ,
The steps are dark and steep,
I weariness we climb them
As we stumble ,fall , and weep ,
And many times we father
Along the path of prayer ,
Wondering if You really care .
Oh ,give us some assurance ,
Restore our faith anew ,
So we can keep on climbing
The stairs of prayer to You ,
For we are weak and wavering ,
Uncertain and unsure ,
And only meeting You in prayer
Can help us to endure
All life’s trails and troubles ,
Its sickness , pain, and sorrow ,
And give us strength and courage
To face and meet tomorrow !
Jan Bagwell

Be strong ,and let your heart take courage , all you who wait for the Lord! Psalm 31 : 24
