Whether we speak from our lips
or from the depth of our hearts,
our thoughts and words go out
as we reach upward to God.
But far beyond the spoken words
God can hear what is not said.
He knows and understands it all
far beyond and even far ahead.
We seek to get God's attention
with words that reach far.
But before we state our needs
God knows just what they are.
Yet prayer serves a purpose.
It awakes us to God's power.
Every need is within His reach
and He is with us every hour.
Prayer reminds us of God's love
and how He gave His very best.
So we can come to God in prayer
whenever we face life's tests.
Prayer draws us to the Father
and connects us to Him by faith.
We experience God's holy presence
and a touch of His sweet grace.
