Someone Is Praying For You

Author: Linda M. Oliver

 

Somewhere someone's praying

Down upon their knees

Lifting you before the Throne

With love and gentle pleas

 

Asking God to give you strength

To face another day

And when the night is darkest

Shine light upon your way

 

Somewhere someone's kneeling

To whisper your name in prayer

Knowing that you need to feel

God's love and tender care

 

They intercede on your behalf

Because they love you so

Knowing that you have a need

To their Father they will go

 

They pray when you're not able

To speak a single word

What peace there is in knowing

Their prayers will be heard

 

They lay you on the altar

As they kneel there at His feet

Giving all your cares to Him

There at the mercy seat

 

Our God is always listening

To every earnest prayer

When we look to Him for help

The answer is always there

 

It's such a comfort to know

That someone prays for you

Placed within His loving hands

Those prayers will see you through

 

As you kneel before the Father

Thank Him for those who care

When you bow before the mercy seat

Whisper their name in prayer

 

“We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,” -Colossians 1:3
