Analysis of Traveling mercies



Have you ever awaken in the mornings
To hear the voices of those in the world
You can hear the plots of the robbers
Even the plans of the burglars
That's when every prayer you heard for me  is understood  with care.
That's when every prayer I prayed to God when I whispered his ear.
Became  a reality for me
For God does answer  prayer.
He wraps his loving arms around me
Carries me everywhere
He constantly  reminds me
He is always there .
To keep me and protect me
Along the road I trod
That I always remember  
Some may follow me
But so will my God.
