He Is Faithful

I see the flickering light of a candle all aglow,
Sustained by fervent heart felt prayers below,
The kind of prayers that move God to work,
Where God labors Satan is also sure to lurk,
Saints bowed under heavy burdens of prayer,
Lifting up supplications layer on top of layer,
Praying promises that are both faithful and true,
There is nothing so impossible God cannot do,
In hope against hope the saints do intercede,
Quoting the word of God they must re-read,
The prayers ascend on wings of faithful trust,
These requirements for answers are a must,
There is often a prescribed period one must wait,
Be assured our Father is on time but never late,
So pray on dear brothers and sisters of the Lord,
He is faithful to help the One we worship and adore.
