God Answers Prayers

God answers prayers, I know He does

He's in the Heavens up above.

And although He's an All Powerful Being

He uses us, our hands and hearts, for serving.

For so often, if not all the time, God's answers come

Through another person's love or service that's done

We're here on earth to help one another

To bear burdens and comfort each other.

For you see, the magic really comes when 
an answered prayer

Not only helps the one in need but spreads 
God's love everywhere

God loves us, He answers our prayers.

But it's often through others that His love is shared.

Am I doing my part, am I in tune, will I be prepared

To see the one in need, to be ready to help and care?

Will I listen and act on what the spirit shares

And be the answer to someone else's prayer?

“God does love us and does answer our prayers

But it's often through another person that he meets our needs.”
