Have You Prayed?


A couple of weeks ago, a lady at my church sent my Mom a Youtube clip of a song that she thought my Mom would like to sing for special music. My Mom searched for the music but couldn't find it anywhere. Listening to the Youtube clip over and over, she began to figure out the notes on the piano. My sister, Alayna, started helping her figure out the notes, added some chords and together they figured out the song arrangement. My Mom sang it this past Sunday. It has really great words, and it has reminded me quite often lately of the importance of prayer.

So many times I often find I struggle with decisions.
I don’t know which path is best for me.
So I begin to worry then someone will ask that question.
The one that always brings me to my knees.

Have you prayed?
Have you asked the one who knows what’s best?
Have you prayed?
Have you knelt before His throne with your request?
When your path is hid in darkness and you cannot find your way.
It’s time to ask the question.
Have you prayed?

I see you smile and all the while I know your heart is fretting.
Friend I know just what you’re going through.
Doubts of dread fill your head and your future seems uncertain.
Hope is gone now what can you do?

Have you prayed?
Have you asked the one who knows what’s best?
Have you prayed?
Have you knelt before His throne with your request?
When your path is hid in darkness and you cannot find your way.
It’s time to ask the question.
Have you prayed?

Why do we refuse to see until things fall apart?
One final try one humble cry is where we need to start.

Have you prayed?
Have you asked the one who knows what’s best?
Have you prayed?
Have you knelt before His throne with your request?
When you path is hid in darkness and you cannot find your way.
It’s time to ask the question.
Have you prayed?
God’s knows your heart.
It’s time to pray.
