NO TIME TO PRAY!

By Presbyterian

No time to pray! Oh! who so fraught with earthly care, As not to give to humble prayer Some part of day?
No time to pray! What heart so clean, so pure within, That needeth not some check from sin— Needs not to pray?
No time to pray! ’Mid each day’s danger, what retreat More needful than the mercy seat? Who must not pray?
No time to pray! Must care or business’ urgent call So press us as to take it all, Each passing day?
No time to pray! Then sure your record falleth short; Excuse will fail you as resort On reckoning day.
What thought more drear Than that our God his face should hide, And say through all life’s swelling tide, No time to hear!
Cease not to pray; On Jesus as your All rely; Would you live happy, happy die? Take time to pray. —Presbyterian.
