The Prayer

Written by: Jeremy Epperson

Verse 1

Lord you knew I'd pray this prayer
Long before I closed my eyes
Before I bowed my head
You looked in this heart of mine
This burden that I've carried, for so long I give to You
And I know that since You've known so long, You'll know just what to do

Chorus

Lord You've always seen Your children safely through
And I know that this time, that's just what You're gonna do
Lord I'm weary and I don't, know what else that I can do
So tonight I'll pray this prayer, and I'll give it all to You

Verse 2

This tear that's flowing down
Soon will be a memory
And the burdens I've endured
Will no longer torment me
I know tomorrow will be a bright new day, of joy hope and peace
And my load will be much lighter, since my prayer by You was reached

Chorus

Lord You've always seen Your children safely through
And I know that this time, that's just what You're gonna do
Lord I'm weary and I don't, know what else that I can do
So tonight I'll pray this prayer, and I'll give it all to You

Bridge

Oh my burden aren't as heavy
With You to bear the load
And my prayers are always answered
When humbly to You I go

Chorus

Lord You've always seen Your children safely through
And I know that this time, that's just what You're gonna do
Lord I'm weary and I don't, know what else that I can do
So tonight I'll pray this prayer (Just a simple prayer)
Just a simple prayer (Just a simple prayer)
And I'll give it all to You
