When Should I Pray?

Normally, its in the low times, that I come to Thee.
Yes, its out of my troubles, that to thee I make my plea.
Thankfully, in my trials, you've asked for me to come.
Even when I'm heavy and oh, so burdensome.
Today, Lord, in meditation, I thought that I just might
Come unto Thee, when I am not bound in such a plight.


Yes, indeed, for that is where I dwell.
In the midst of the praise of all of Israel!


Good, I wanted to make sure that you received mine,
Because of ten leapers healed, there returned only nine.



"Thanks for your remembrance, but please don't you forget"
"That coming unto me can get the harder yet."
"Jonah cried to me from the belly of a whale"
"When things were looking good, against me he did rebel."
"Three Hebrew children spoke to me from a furnace."
"It seems all will call on me when victory is their purpose."
"But, when battles are not the case,"
"And victory has taken there place"
"Most forget all about me when there's no trouble on the horizon."
"When there is no emergency, who needs a siren?"


Well, Lord, please help me, never to forget,
That when it seems I do not need Thee; I need Thee the more yet.


"Yes, you will do well, to always be aware"
"That it's when you think you stand that you need the most prayer."
"Remember my son, who prayed from the valleys"
"When things took a turn, he would pray after the rallies!"


Lord, before I go, if I could make one request,
Help me to seek Thee like Christ, whether afflicted or whether blessed.
For after feeding five thousand, he withdrew from the crowd.
And after entering a mountain, before you he then bowed.
