You said a prayer
For the child who sits crying
At the top of the stairs

For the man in the doorway
Who's hungry and cold
The story of life on his face
That has never been told

For the wife in the kitchen
All battered and bruised
Who fights for survival
Whilst being abused

For the lost little puppy
Chucked into the street
Wet, wragged, and pained
By the sores on his feet

When was the last time
You said a prayer
It doesn't take much
But it shows that you care

Say A Prayer

When was the last time
You said a prayer
For the child who sits crying
At the top of the stairs

For the man in the doorway
Who's hungry and cold
The story of life on his face
That has never been told

For the wife in the kitchen
All battered and bruised
Who fights for survival
Whilst being abused

For the lost little puppy
Chucked into the street
Wet, wragged, and pained
By the sores on his feet

When was the last time
You said a prayer
It doesn't take much
But it shows that you care

This is wonderfully written, quite awesome and very inspirational.
It shows what a caring person you are.

I think we all need this little reminder at times.. Thanks for sharing..
Well done, Star...

You are a genuine product of goodness
These are peoples lives every day
and while we may see this person or hear of them
we are so wrapped up in ourselves to notice or even care
This is a reminder to all of us to love our fellow beings
and prayer is such a wonderful thing
Thank you again

Great thoughts. The power of prayer is so amazing. Some of the most wonderful miracles on this earth have come from the asking of a single person through prayer.
