Are we a praying church?
Do we commit to prayers?
Are we actually prepared to
pray
Until our answer comes?
Would we recognize the
answer?
Do we merely beg You for
ourselves?
Do we wring our hands in
terror
In this wicked world of ours?
Are we truly Yours, O Lord,
Will we wait, in prayer, for
you?
Do we really look to You for
help?
Are we a praying church?
Drop Your heavenly fire, O
Lord,
On us, that we may
serve;
That enemies might learn of
You
And thus be friends of
Christ.
They may remain unknown to
us,
But you know ALL, O God.
How might I serve Your word
for peace?
Are we a praying church?
I know there’s more than
illness,
More to pray for than just
this,
So may our prayers contain
our thanks,
May praying serve to pray our
praise!
Lord, may THY will be done,
No matter what our thoughts!
May we rejoice in misery
As we think only of You!
May we not think of
ourselves,
But live only for the Master.
May we become a praying
church;
May prayers become our habit!
