And I Pray
Lyrics
Key: C
CCLI Song No. 3236237
Verse 1 (Psalm 139)
Even before that special day when the world and you first met
Your Father God had plans for you, for all of your days He has set.
God knows your end and your beginning, and everything in between .
He's behind you and before you, knows where you're going and where you have been.
Verse 2 (Isaiah 46:3,4; Romans 8:28)
My friend, you must let me say this; for I have found it true
Our Father is able to carry us and He will see us through.
In everything that happens, God has His hand in all.
He works for the good of His loved ones, for the good of all He has called.
Verse 3 (Prov. 3:5,6; Psalm 27:14)
I pray that as you walk each day in Him you'll fully trust
For all His ways are righteous; all His ways are just.
As you acknowledge Jesus your path He will make straight.
Be strong, my brother and wait for Him; take heart, my brother, and wait.
Verse 4 (Ephesians 1:17-19)
I pray that the glorious Father, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ
May open the eyes of your heart and make your spirit wise.
So that you may know Him better and the hope to which you've been called
And His unlimited, incomparable power that works with might and strength for us all.
Verse 5 (Eph. 3:16-17; Col. 1:9,10)
I pray that the Father will strengthen you through His Spirit in your inner man
Through faith Jesus dwells in your heart; in love, I pray you will stand.
May you grasp how wide and how long and how high and how deep is His love for you
May God fill you up completely that you may please Him in all that you do.
Verse 6 (Ephesians 3:20)
Now I give thanks to the Father; He's able to do far more
Than all we ask or imagine, according to His pow'r.
I'm thanking the Father for you, bro; you're special to Him and to me.
May God's favour abound and His peace reign in you; my "bro" in God's family.
