puffs of little prayers
under the breath of the mind
the sporadic informal kind
puffs of smoke, go up to the sky
i don't know how high
but to the lord i hope will reach
puffs of little prayers
under the breath of my heeart
they are sincere
though short.
prayers of, thank you,
i love you.
help me lord,
i don't know what to do!
breaths of groaning
when my heart and soul
are moaning
prayers without words
even to the mind, unheard.
go through all the steps they say ,
but, no time
urgency does not let me obey
but desperately
i cast my care on him
without fear, i cast up . . .
puffs of little prayers
under the breath of my mind
the sporadic informal kind
puffs of smoke
go up to the sky
i don't know how high
but to the lord
i hope will reach
puffs of little prayers
under the breath of my heart
for where there is smoke
there was a fire start.
to the victims here or there
who had no time
for a formal prayer
as their tower of life
came crashing down!
and up in smoke!
i believe as the reality of
this is real, not a joke hit them!
not all,
but many desperate,
sincere cries went up,
invisible to you and i.
as the big puffs of smoke
violated the beautiful sky line,
little puffs of prayer,
went even higher
god heard their cry.
prayers of repentant hearts
prayers for their children
for family and friends
priorities were in order then
god now was their only friend.
no choice left,
but cry . . .
in the twinkling of an eye
lord have mercy on me
as i die.
puffs of little prayers
under the breath of the mind
the sporadic informal kind
puffs of smoke go up to the sky,
we don't know how high
but to the lord we hope will reach
puffs of little prayers
under the breath of the heart
for where there is smoke
thre was a fire start.
