God is Just a Prayer Away

 

God is just a prayer away

A prayer away

Just a little thought away

 

I said a prayer

For you today

Held a thought

For you

In my heart

 

God and you

Are always in my heart

Just a thought

Just a thought

Just a little thought away

 

I define prayer

Simply as the lifting up

Of your heart, of your mind, and your soul

To God

 

And I believe

That when you pray for someone else

It is simply the lifting up

Of their heart, their mind, and their soul

To God

Just praying for their intentions

Or their best interests

 

God is just a prayer away

A little thought away

 

I said a prayer

For you today

Held a thought for you

In my heart

 

All you need to know about prayer

Is that Jesus did it

 

He prayed for himself,

“Father, the time has come, glorify your Son

That your Son may glorify you”                                        John 17:1

 

“I have brought you glory on earth

By completing the work

That you gave me to do”                                                 John  17:4

 

I said a prayer for you today

I held you in my heart

 

Jesus prayed for his disciples,

“For I gave them

The words you gave to me

And they accepted them

They know with certainty

That I came from you

And they believed that you sent me

I pray for them

I am not praying for the world

But for those you have given me

For they are yours”                            John  17: 8&9

 

God is just a prayer

Just a little thought away

 

Jesus prayed for the world,

“My prayer is not for them alone

I pray also for those who believe in me

Through their message

That all of them

Will be one”                                           John 17: 20 & 21

 

I said a prayer for you today

More importantly, Jesus said a prayer

For you today

And most importantly

I think God heard them

 

God is just a prayer away

Just a little thought away
