Pray without ceasing

"Pray Like Paul"

(Country/Americana — medium groove, G or A,

Verse 1

He wrote from a prison cell, chains on his hands

But his heart was still free and he had a plan

He said lift up your voice, let your requests be known

Don't carry that burden, you don't carry it alone

CHORUS

Pray for the lost, pray for the kings

Pray with thanksgiving in everything

Pray without ceasing, night and day

For boldness to live and the gospel to say

Pray for the knowledge of His love and His grace

Pray that His Word runs and finds its place

Pray like Paul — that's the way

Pray like Paul — every day

Verse 2

He asked for the saints to be rooted and strong

To know the love of Christ their whole life long

He asked for open doors and a fearless tongue

So the mystery of grace could reach everyone

(Chorus)

Bridge

Be anxious for nothing — take it to the throne

Supplications, intercessions — you don't pray alone

The peace that passes understanding will guard your heart and mind

So pray like Paul and leave your worries behind

(Chorus — out)
