Analysis of Always
I have a need that won't succeed
Without my precious Lord.
I've tried before but needed more;
A loss I can't afford.
I need to pray to God each day
Or weakness will ensue;
It helps my walk with God to talk
With praise that is so true.
If I don't feel His love is real,
And if I don't hear Him,
I've learned that I must always try
To never let faith dim!
