O King , this man Daniel , one of the exiles.
Is at his prayers three times each day.
He was prepared to speak truth to lies.
His faith they could not easily gainsay.

Will they say the same of us men.
That we were at our prayers three times each day .
We certainly won’t be put in the lion’s den.
And if we want we can always have our say.

Daniel’s courage had his reward .
He is now immortalised.
When they cut our own life’s cord.
We can only hope we will not be despised.

It’s good to take just one thing from a reading.
Praying , giving not always needing.

…….

Pray three times a day
Who then will say that of us
Maybe nobody

………

See Daniel 6: 12-38
