Power of Prayer
So many are the challenges that face us everyday
And with each is a reason that we need to stop and pray
For God to make us witnesses to all that He can do
When we lay all before the cross where He makes sinners new
For all of us are sinners all of us know not the way
To really be effective in the way that we should pray
Unless we spend that special time where God can help us be
Reflective of His perfect will that lives in you and me
When we are full abandoned to His will and way for men
Who will not want not choose not to be slaves again to sin
But want more than the air they breathe to live for Jesus Christ
Who gave His all upon that cross to be our Sacrifice
That we be more that people who have access to God's throne
But be a pure reflection of what He has always shown
To be His Law of Righteousness that lives and reigns in love
That endlessly proceeds to us who seek His throne above
Where is the power and Majesty that rules the hearts of men
Who choose to follow in the path that He will lead us in
The path where all who know Him not but see us everyday
Begin to see His Light in us that leads them to the Way
Where all who will give all to Him will more than know His will
But will experience His grace that He's providing still
To work the works of holiness wherein His love abides
That heals the broken of their past and by His Spirit guides
His people as His children who by faith want more to be
The channels of His holiness more than iniquity
That He through them might touch the world in ways it's never known
That when He comes He'll reap the fruits of seed that they have sown
The fruits of souls surrendered to the purpose of God's will
Each morning in their prayer time as they felt His Spirit fill
Their emptiness with purpose and the wisdom for the day
To meet the many challenges they thought would come their way
And more than meet to conquer by the power of Jesus name
The power of the enemy who seeks to cast his blame
Upon us but is vanquished by the power of God through prayer
Because His Presence stays with those who take Him everywhere
2 Timothy 3:12-17; Mark 10:14-15; James 5:15; 2 Chronicles 7:14-15
