Welfare at McAuley
I got up early one morning
And rushed right into the day.
I had so much to accomplish
That I didn’t take time to pray.
Problems just tumbled about me
And heavier became each task.
“Why doesn’t God help me,” I wondered;
He answered, “You didn’t ask.”
I wanted to see joy and beauty,
But the day toiled on, gray and bleak.
I wondered why God didn’t show me;
He said, “But you didn’t seek.”
I tried to come into God’s presence.
I used all my keys at the lock.
God gently and lovingly chided,
“My child, you didn’t knock.”
I woke up early this morning
And paused before entering the day.
I had so much to accomplish
That I had to take time to pray.
