Wise Eyes

   ON MY KNEES

          When we are unable to do things we want to do here is another way to get it done.

                

Last night I took a journey; to a land far across the seas.

I did not travel by boat or plane; I traveled on my knees.

I saw so many people there, In trouble and in sin;

Jesus told me I should go, For there were souls to win.

But I said, “Lord I am not able to go And work for Thee.”

He answered quickly, “Yes you can. . . By traveling on your knees”.

He said, “You pray, and I’ll meet that need. . . You call, and I will hear;

Carry a burden for lost souls. . .Of those both far and near”.

And so I tried it, , , Knelt in prayer; And gave up some hours of ease.

I felt the Lord right by my side, While traveling on my knees.

As I went on, souls were saved; And sickly bodies healed. . . 

I also saw my strength renewed, While laboring on the fields.

I said, “Yes, my Lord, I’ll go. . .  My desire Thy will to please;

I will go and heed Thy call, By traveling on my knees”.

And by faith I saw things happen; Christ setting men free. . . 

Joy and peace was also theirs, On the other side of the sea.

The message of Christ was given, As clear as could be;

And I was also there. . .Cause I traveled on my knees.
