There Is Prayer

They say the boy is near the end

The needle had its way again

His crying mother wonders why

The family gathers round his bed

What can be done, what can be said

Nothing that they can do tonight

But there is prayer

There's someone who is listening

Who knows the situation

Then acts because He cares

There is prayer

He'll give His full attention

And answer in His wisdom

Anytime or anywhere

There is prayer

Another marriage takes its toll

Their anger burns, their love is cold

They see no hope to ease their pain

Yet all bitterness they feel

Is not so great, it can't be healed

Down on their knees, a hope remains

But there is prayer

There's someone who is listening

Who knows the situation

Then acts because He cares

(I know He cares)

There is prayer

He'll give His full attention

Then answer in His wisdom

Anytime or anywhere

There is prayer

To a never-changing Father

He is where we need to turn

And He longs for us to learn

There is prayer

There is prayer

There's someone who is listening

Who knows the situation

Then He acts because He cares

Oh, there is prayer

He'll give His full attention

And answer in His wisdom

Anytime or anywhere

There is prayer
