can make some tough trips smoother
Somehow things go better
riding on the wings of prayer
I know it’s so, you see,
as I recently did
Drove fourteen hundred miles
smoother than you can believe
Concern, big time,
was in the seat beside me
A big thing, concern
about a daughter being challenged
‘Auto-immune disease’
the doctors call it
and indeed it is a challenge
a lot of “I don’t know’ in there
Mile after mile, I went
wide awake and alert
hour after hour, I went
moving with the traffic
so I drive a lot
most of it 5 miles per
So thruway speeds
are exhilarating
and the scenery constantly changing
not like a half mile field.
As time goes by
sleepy is normal
so my feet go up
and I quick nap
especially after lunch
Not so, riding on wings
prayer lifting me up
I’m wide awake and alert!
But wait, there’s more!
Indeed, God answers prayer!
At journey’s end
He is there and we realize
He was there, all of the time!
Praise God, from whom all blessings flow,
and thanksgiving to those who pray
lifting us up, so we can
ride on the wings of prayer.
