Hear Our Prayer
Music by Steve Bell, Lyric by Steve Bell and Jamie Howison
Now we pray to You Father for peace in the world
For the right use of all You have given
A respect for creation in us be restored
Lord in Your mercy
Hear our prayer
And we pray for the poor of the world everywhere
And for all those who suffer from hunger and fear
For those who are homeless – for those who need care
Lord in Your mercy
Hear our prayer
Now we pray for those close to us, those who have needs
For the friends that we love and for all our families
For these loved ones we pray Jesus grant them Your peace
Lord in Your mercy
Hear our prayer
And we pray for ourselves for forgiveness of sins
For the evil around that is born from within
And we ask You oh God that You heal us again
Lord in Your mercy
Hear our prayer
Now in closing we ask You dear Father on our knees
Lord for mercy on all those we call our enemies
So that all might be one in Your love and Your peace
Lord in Your mercy
Hear our prayer
Thank you
I listened to this song on my way to work. Really listened.
The words are so powerful, so comforting. It is a wonderful think, to know that God can take all these parts of my life and bring peace in. That He is that merciful.
I have heard this song many times but today I really heard the message.
Thank you.
