The Power of Prayer!

1. Never underestimate the power of prayer, 

of which many people are so unaware.

As troubles come and troubles go, 

there are certain things that we should know.

Just as wind blows leaves from trees, 

and rivers carry ships to seas,

prayer can whirl our cares away, 

and safely GUIDES us through each day.

2. As love’s strong power conquers hate, 

deep faith and prayer ensures our fate.

Fire can warm our body’s chill, 

but answered prayer HEALS every ill.

God’s love is a spiritual fire, 

which satisfies every desire.

He created us to be, 

fulfilled in our own ministry.

3. In the richness of His love, 

we are clothed with heaven above.

If we look into His face, 

we will feel His warm embrace.

How can we show doubt and fear, 

when God’s own healing love is near?

As shining sun melts winter snow, 

all care DISSOLVES in love’s warm glow.

4. Prayer LIFTS us upon its wing 

to the throne of heaven’s King,

our humble caring Majesty, 
who longs to answer every plea.

So hear His beckoning, longing voice.  

It only takes a simple choice

to say a prayer of faith, then trust

in God who’s merciful and just.

5. He desires our happiness, 

and died to remove all duress.

His light ILLUMINATES the mind.  

In him our peace and joy we find.

As He takes us by the hand, 

and leads us to His holy land,

all His riches we will share, 

just by the simple power of prayer!

"Ask and you will receive,

seek and you will find, knock

and the door will be opened to you."

Matthew 7:7
