Faith to Grace

How does my little prayer help someone there?
Our cell phones use the satellites in space,
sending their messages beyond the air,
our prayers must sail the space from faith to grace.

We trust our prayers will land in God’s own ear,
our faith is that God’s there to hear us pray,
we trust He’s good, and cares about us here,
and that He’ll answer us in His own way.

We trust God answers in His Church and book,
the teachings we learned at our mother’s knee,
we see God’s grace at work wherever we look,
with eyes of faith He graces us to see.

God drapes His grace in spiritual disguise,
that sometimes brings a physical surprise.
