The Power of Prayer

No matter how softly you whisper a prayer
Someone must surely be listening there
Who understands well...
and knows from the start...
The hope and fears you keep in your heart...


For whenever you turn to
that Friend up above
And ask for His guidance
and trust in His love
What wonders may be no one can say...
Miracles happen sometimes when you pray...


Nobody knows the power of prayer
To turn the clouds back
and make the day fair...
But troubles are lightened and faith is restored
When in quiet moments you pray to the Lord.
