She prays.<\/p>\n
She opens her Bible and finds strength in the page.<\/p>\n
And talks face to face with the Maker of Days.<\/p>\n
When you have the King\u2019s ear, what can you not change?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She\u2019s kind.<\/p>\n
Never blurts what she thinks. Takes no bother to whine.<\/p>\n
She is humble and gentle. Not idle. Not bleak.<\/p>\n
Strength in her quiet; don\u2019t mistake it for weak.<\/p>\n
With the King\u2019s Words to back you, what would you seek?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And the power she wields, though not weapon or spoke,<\/p>\n
Quietly, patiently prays for the folk,<\/p>\n
Who smirk and giggle and think God is a joke,<\/p>\n
But one day will wake up\u2014and then they\u2019ll be woke!<\/p>\n
