Songtexte: Steven Curtis Chapman. Let Us Pray.
I hear you say your heart is aching
You've got trouble in the making
And you ask if
I'll be praying for you, please
And in keeping with convention
I'll say yes with good intentions
To pray later
Making mention of your needs
But, since we have this moment
Here at heaven's door
We should start knocking now
What are we waiting for?
Let us pray, let us pray
Everywhere in every way
Every moment of the day
It is the right time
For the Father above
He is listening with love
And He wants to answer us
So, let us pray
So when we feel the Spirit moving
Prompting, prodding and behooving
There was no time
To be losing, let us pray
Let the Father hear us saying
What we need to be conveying
Even while this song
Is playing, let us pray
And just because
We say the word, Amen
It doesn't mean
This conversation needs to end
Let us pray, let us pray
Everywhere in every way
Every moment of the day
It is the right time
Let us pray without end
And when we finish, start again
Like breathing out
And breathing in, oh, let us pray
Let us approach
The throne of grace with confidence
As our prayers draw us near
To the One who knows our needs
Before we even call His name
Let us pray, let us pray
Everywhere in every way
Every moment of the day
It is the right time
For the Father above
He is listening with love
And He wants to answer us, so
Let us pray, let us pray
Everywhere in every way
Every moment of the day
It is the right time
And let us pray without end
And when we finish, start again
Like breathing out
And breathing in, oh, let us pray
Oh, let us pray, yeah
Let us pray, yeah
Oh, let us pray, yeah
Pray [Incomprehensible] away
Our Father which art in Heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Thy kingdom come Thy will be done
On earth as it is in Heaven
Let us pray, let us pray, let us pray
Oh, let us pray, yeah
You've got trouble in the making
And you ask if
I'll be praying for you, please
And in keeping with convention
I'll say yes with good intentions
To pray later
Making mention of your needs
But, since we have this moment
Here at heaven's door
We should start knocking now
What are we waiting for?
Let us pray, let us pray
Everywhere in every way
Every moment of the day
It is the right time
For the Father above
He is listening with love
And He wants to answer us
So, let us pray
So when we feel the Spirit moving
Prompting, prodding and behooving
There was no time
To be losing, let us pray
Let the Father hear us saying

Even while this song
