UNANSWERED YET?
1. Unanswered yet?
The prayer your lips have pleaded
In agony of heart
these many years?
Does faith begin to
fail, is hope departing,
And think you all
in vain those falling tears?
Say not the Father hath
not heard your prayer;
You shall have your
desire, sometime, somewhere,
You shall have your
desire, sometime, somewhere.
2. Unanswered
yet? Nay, do not say ungranted;
Perhaps your part
is not yet wholly done;
The work began when
first your prayer was uttered,
And God will finish
what He has begun.
If you will keep
the incense burning there;
His glory you shall
see, sometime, somewhere,
His glory you shall
see, sometime, somewhere.
3. Unanswered
yet? Faith cannot be unanswered;
Her feet were
firmly planted on the Rock;
Amid the wildest
storm prayer stands undaunted,
Nor quails before
the loudest thunder shock;
She knows
Omnipotence has heard her prayer,
And cries, "It shall be done, sometime,
somewhere,''
And cries, "It shall be done, sometime, somewhere.''
