When you think your prayers aren’t going through Please know that God still hears you When it seems as if your words do not rise Please know they go beyond the sky When you think God has closed his ears Your prayers are heard for he still hears Even when the words don’t come God will hear and always give you some God, receive my prayers into your hands – every word And, God, take my prayers and let me know that I am heard God hears my prayers When it seems as if an answer is not given The answer is known in heaven When it hurts too much to speak God will strengthen the tongue that’s weak When praying seems too hard Just be still and know that he is God It’s enough to feel him near It’s enough to wipe away your tears When the clouds form And you’re in the storm And you’re in the darkest night When your heart breaks And your world shakes And your God is not in sight God, receives your prayers into his hands – every word And God takes your prayers and lets you know that you are heard God hears your prayers
