PRAYERS ARE THE STAIRS TO GOD
Prayers are the stairs,
We must climb every day.
If we would reach God,
There is no other way,
For we learn to know God,
When we meet Him in prayer,
And ask Him to lighten,
Our burden of care.
So start in the morning,
And, though the way's steep,
Climb ever upward,
'til your eyes close in sleep.
For prayers are the stairs,
That lead to the Lord,
And to meet Him in prayer
Is the climber's reward.
