PRAY

I remember it like yesterday

We hit it off the very first day

“An instant bond“, as they say

That’s when I started to pray

I didn’t know if they knew Him

Or experienced a new life through Him

Prayed that if they didn’t know Him

That I might be able to show them

God, help them to know and help them to see

Soften their heart so they can be free

What I would do to at last see the day

Coming to You; Finding their way

You came to church with me the first time

Anxious and scared of what you would find

Then the preacher walked out into the lights

And preached on anxiety; It blew your mind

We talked on the porch by the flowers

Unpacking the Gospel for hours

Jesus Christ taking on our sins

In exchange for His life, we get ours

God, help them to know and help them to see

Soften their heart so they can be free

What I would do to at last see the day

Coming to You; Finding their way

You tried and you tried to fill all of the holes from the hurt inside

But nothing could fill them no matter how much; It still left you dry

You were running with all of your might

Life they had known was a fight

All they had known was the night

Suddenly there came a Light

He filled them with newness of life…

Gave new sight

You helped them to know; You helped them to see

You softened their heart and now they are free

At last I have seen; At last I can say

They finally came to You, They found their way
