The trials we face so difficult,
just to make it through the day.
Our thoughts askew, the body fights,
we bend our knees to pray.

He hears the call and understands,
just what we ask of Him.
He’ll answer when the time is right,
and asks we trust in Him.

One day soon the pain will stop,
how glorious it will be.
We smile again His touch received,
to finally be set free.

Dedicated to my dear friend Linda Layman
