We Pray

This is such a beautiful song!! Barlow Girl and a bunch of other Christian artists recorded it for the 2007 National Day of Prayer (May 3rd). Barlow Girl is the National Day of Prayer Youth Ambassadors for 2007. I just thought I'd post it, because the lyrics are so powerful, and when we pray, God hears us, and does miracles!! He is just an utterly amazing God, and hears us, no matter where we are, or what we've done, even when we don't think He's there, He still has His hand on us. Praise God! Here's the page for Barlow Girl on the National Day of Prayer website, and here's the song. They did a beautiful job with it [the song].

We Pray
Words & Music by: Clint Lagerberg and Otto Price

For the tired and the weary

Lost and confused
Hopeless and needy
With nothing to lose
For those who are falling
Or have already fallen away

Our hearts are exploding
With compassion and love
For a world that is crying
To be lifted up (oh...)

(Chorus)
We pray
Humbly we seek Your face
Broken yet unafraid
We leave it all in Your hands
We trust that You'll heal our lands
And know that You'll hear us when
We pray

Peace and forgiveness
For the nations at war
Strength in their weakness
When they can fight no more
Mercy, redemption, healing
And for You to be Lord of all


Our hearts are exploding
With compassion and love
For a world that is crying
To be lifted up (oh...)


(Bridge)
Father in Heaven
The Giver of life
Your Kingdom forever be glorified
We pray you will unite us
And heal our divide
We bow down before You
Oh Lord hear our cry (as)
