"
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered" (Romans 8:26)
PRAYER WITHOUT WORDS
Sometimes I do not pray in words:
I take my heart in my two hands
And hold it up before the Lord -
I am so glad He understands.
Sometimes I do not pray in words:
My spirit bows before His feet
And, with His hand upon my head,
We hold communion, silent, sweet.
Sometimes I do not pray in words:
For I am tired and long for rest;
My weary heart finds all it needs
Upon the Saviour's gentle breast.
