106. Sometime, Somewhere

1 Unanswered yet? The pray'r your lips have pleaded
In agony of heart these many years?
Does faith begin to fail, is hope departing,
And think you all in vain those falling tears?
Say not the Father hath not heard your pray'r;
You shall have your desire, sometime, somewhere,
You shall have your desire, sometime, somewhere.

2 Unanswered yet? Tho' when you first presented
This one petition at the Father's throne,
It seemed you could not wait the time of asking,
So urgent was your heart to make it known.
Tho' years have passed since then, do not despair;
The Lord will answer you, sometime, somewhere,
The Lord will answer you, sometime, somewhere.

3 Unanswered yet? Nay, do not say ungranted;
Perhaps your part is not yet wholly done;
The work began when first your pray'r was uttered,
And God will finish what He has begun.
If you will keep the incense burning there,
His glory you shall see, sometime, somewhere,
His glory you shall see, sometime, somewhere.

4 Unanswered yet? Faith cannot be unanswered;
Her feet were firmly planted on the Rock;
Amid the wildest storm pray'r stands undaunted,
Nor quails before the loudest thunder shock;
She knows Omnipotence has heard her pray'r,
And cries, "It shall be done, sometime, somewhere,"
And cries "It shall be done, sometime, somewhere."
