Unanswered yet the prayer your lips have pleaded
In agony of heart these many years?
Does faith begin to fail? Is hope departing?
And think you all in vain those falling tears?
Say not the Father hath not heard your prayer;
You shall have your desire sometime, somewhere.
Unanswered yet? Nay do not say ungranted;
Perhaps your work is not yet wholly done.
The work began when first your prayer was uttered,
And God will finish what He has begun.
If you will keep the incense burning there,
His glory you shall see sometime, somewhere.
Unanswered yet? Faith cannot be unanswered,
Your feet are firmly planted on the Rock;
Amid the wildest storms you stands undaunted,
Nor quails before the loudest thunder shock.
You knows Omnipotence has heard your prayer,
And cries, “It shall be done”–sometime, somewhere.
