Hello everyone! So I am officially home from my mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and my break here on poetrysoup is over! My next set of poems will be mostly religious/spiritual because I am planning on uploading a bunch of the poems I wrote while on my mission. This poem is inspired by a couple of hard days on my mission where I felt like I just wanted to give up and go home. In those moments I would pray and those prayers would help me find the strength to continue onwards. It didn't always come in a moment, but comfort always came. I hope everyone has a chance to feel that same connectedness when they are feeling down and that this poem can help inspire you to pray! Love y'all!

Some days Just are not your day Some days Do not go your way Some days The whole world is against you Some days Giving up is all you can do An then you pray And the Savior is there You hear him say I have heard your prayer And everything Will turn out all right For every dark There is a light You cannot be lost Where you cannot be found I can pick you up When you hit the ground Do not worry now I am by your side And everything Will turn out all right. Some days You have no power Some days You live hour by hour Some days Seem to have no end Some days You cannot win An then you pray And the Savior is there You hear him say I have heard your prayer And every moment Passes by Every heartache And tear you cry And I have felt the pain You're feeling now I've borne the chains That weigh you down If you don't have strength I'll give you mine And every moment Passes by In every day He is there In every way He shows His care In every moment Turn to Him Because At every door He lets us in So when you pray The Savior is there He will always say He hears your prayer And Please don't doubt Just turn to Him Don't walk away Just let Him in He will always Be right here Say a prayer And He will hear
