A Living Prayer
Written by Janie Mathis

Within your womb, where I lay
Already know your voice
And your thoughts, hearts beat in time
Please let me be your choice

I’m alive, a tiny soul
I live within you now
If you wait, one day you’ll see
Though now you wonder how…

Wonder how you’ll make it work
Or how you’ll care for me
How you’ll live from day to day
Lost in humility

Don’t you know you’re not alone?
Not only is there me
But my Father loves you so
His love will set you free

Time within your womb is short
Against the years not run
Bring the days I’ll walk with you
In laughter in the sun

I can’t speak; my voice is meek
I pray unto your soul
Make your choice to give me life
And God will make you whole

I pray that future Mothers everywhere will hear this soft still voice within them...  Bob <><
