The Power of a Prayer Songtext

von Matthew West

Dear God it's me calling out to you
Tonight I'm on my knees hoping you'll come though
This ones for my dad can you help him please?
The worlds made him mad at mom and me
And I'm asking you to bring his heart back home
Ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh
The power of a prayer
Mama's all I have but shes alone again tonight
They always used to laugh

Now all they do is fight
She says I love that man
Hes so far from you
Shes done all she can but she cant break through
And shes begging you to bring his heart back home
Ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh
The power of a prayer
Ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh

Ohhh ohhh
The power of a prayer
Just a whisper in the dark spoken to a broken heart

Holding on to one last strand of faith
Somewhere in the world right now
A desprate soul is crying out

Hoping Jesus really hears us
When we pray
Dear God do you recognize my voice
I havent talked to you since I was a little boy
Tonight I heard my son pray for his old man
Made me come undone made me understand
That only you can bring my heart back home

Ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh
The power of a prayer
Ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh
The power of a prayer
