A prayer is your guidance,
Spoken with love from up above.
Words forever beside you in your heart so true,
Always more than enough his words is what makes us tough.
If tears befall upon you he is there to help you through,
Ones that tests your soul he makes you whole.
Only the prayer can heal you with his tender eyes he See's you,
This all his children know as he helps us grow.
For prayer is as bright as the light of day at night we pray,
To the heavens were sent his way he shares his prayer today.
Then as his golden ray returns a lesson we will learn,
Comes his answer to those concerned.
Within his light his touch so pure for this I know for sure,
Only through prayer does he open the door spread his love forever more.
Sending his love so devine he makes you shine,
For all prayers yours and mine he shows us the way when it's time.

Beautiful
So true it is for he and only he can lift us from the depths and show us the way -
Amber,
A wonderfully crafted poem. There is wonderful meaning behind it.
One thing I do notice though is punctuation. I know that some poets pay it no heed, but it does help when reading and in clarifying meaning of what you are saying. Also when talking about God and referring to He or Him, I was always taught that He or Him should be capitalized.
This is just me. It is your poem and you must do what is right for you. I think you are a wonderful writer from what I have read of your work. Take care and keep that ink flowing.
