Traveling On My Knees
Author Unknown
Last night I took a journey
To a land across the seas
I didn’t go by ship or plane
I traveled on my knees.
I saw so many people there
In bondage to their sins,
And Jesus told me I should go,
That there were souls to win.
But I said, “Jesus, I can’t go
To lands across the seas.”
He answered quickly, “Yes, you can
By traveling on your knees.”
He said, “You pray, I’ll meet the need,
You call, and I will hear,
It’s up to you to be concerned
For lost souls far and near.”
And so I did, I knelt in prayer,
Gave up some hours of ease,
And with the Savior by my side,
I traveled on my knees.
As I prayed on, I saw souls saved
And twisted persons healed,
I saw God’s workers’ strength renewed
While laboring on the field.
I said, “Yes, Lord, I’ll take the job,
Your heart I want to please,
I’ll heed your call and swiftly go
By traveling on my knees.”
