I wrote this song in about an hour in preparation for a Christian family group meeting. The topic of discussion was God's will in our lives.
Lyrics
When all is well with our world
When it seems our paths are known
When our hearts are full and our steps are light
We think we can make it alone.
But when disaster falls
When we can't fulfill all our needs
When the skies are dark and our futures bleak
That's when we're on our knees.
What words do we say when we finally pray?
Are we asking for miracle cures?
It's easy to pray to get our own way
Help us to pray for Yours
Help us to pray for yours
So often we take the wrong path
And God's just along for the ride
And so often we think we know better than He
When our will and His collide
But if we will open our hearts
We will find His words in our prayers
As we lift up our hands we'll feel closer to Him
And He'll take up all of our cares.
What words do we say when we finally pray?
Are we asking for miracle cures?
It's easy to pray to get our own way
Help us to pray for Yours
Help us to pray for yours
Your ways are beyond our imagining
Let us pray for the blessings and mercy You bring!
What words do we say when we finally pray?
Are we asking for miracle cures?
It's easy to pray to get our own way
Help us to pray for Yours
Help us to pray for yours
Help us to pray for yours
