The Gift of Prayer

(1 Timothy 2:8)

1. Pray’rs to God are truly heard

From all those who keep his Word.

And through Jesus Christ alone,

We can reach God’s holy throne.

2. Pray’rs that reach Jehovah’s ear

Earnest need to be, sincere.

Being heartfelt, they reflect

To our God all due respect.

3. But in praying to our God,

We have need ourselves to prod

Lest our words become mere rote.

Rather, may they warmth denote.

4. Yes, we must find time to pray

As we walk the narrow way.

Pray’r consoles and does uplift;

Truly it’s God’s gracious gift.
