we pray to a person

not to the air, to the heavens,
to idols of stone, of wood,
to anything of this earth
yet we pray to a person
our risen Lord Jesus
seated in heaven,
on His eternal throne…
 
we come before Him in assurance,
we trust that He will answer our prayers,
we humbly approach Him
on His heavenly throne,
in reverence, in petition,
I faith God will bless us
that God loves us all…
