One Prayer

If I can pray one prayer with all my heart,
then my poor life may have some meaning yet,
more than some sweet song or great work of art,
one prayer well prayed I never would regret.
God does great things with prayer in His delight,
our thoughts God hears like thunder when we pray,
like lightning God responds with all His might,
and pours like torrents of rain His grace our way.
God reads the heart when prayer is prayed sincere,
He sees the faith when prayer's aimed right at Him,
He knows exactly how we feel down here,
He even lets us sense His presence dim.
You drench me, Lord, with love because I dare
to offer You my little well-prayed prayer.
