What if a service never closed
While one at the altar prayed
What if we could just settle there
In case of unseen delays.

What if in 5 more minutes
Hard hearts had given way
And the Spirit of the Living God
Appointed deliverance that very day.

What if in that very moment
We joined that one in prayer
Allowing Christ to send His Spirit
To go deeper than we’ve dared.

What if that one was pressing in
And knew He desired to come
Yet all had ceased and closed the door
Healing left undone.
