Im the one

I’m the one that prays for you

When your head hangs in shame

I’m the one that holds your hand

To assure you it’s alright

I’m the one that encourages you

When things get to hard

Ohhh so why am I the first to cry

As your rib I’m in the gap

And it’s a tough place to stay sometimes

God please

Prepare me for this fight

I’m the one that holds you

When life’s too hard to bare

I’m the one that covers you

When temptations come your way

I’m the one that feeds you

When your body is hungry

Oooh So why am I the first to cry

As your rib I’m in the gap

And it’s a tough place to stay sometimes

God please

Prepare me for this fight

As your rib I’m in the gap

And it’s a tough place to stay sometimes

God please

Prepare me for this fight

I don’t want to throw the towel in

But if it’s your will

You provide the way

can’t stay in a place if the hurt won’t stop

Or a change don’t come our way

As your rib I’m in the gap

And it’s a tough place to stay sometimes

God please

Prepare me for this fight

As your rib I’m in the gap

And it’s a tough place to stay sometimes

God please

Prepare me for this fight

Lord I need you to touch his heart

Heal him from the root out

You can see the darkest places of us

The things we carry from childhood into adulthood

Lord create in him a clean heart and renew his spirit in you

And Jesus reach on down and sprinkle alittle more

Courage and wisdom into your daughter

In your name I pray

Amen

As your rib I’m in the gap

And it’s a tough place to stay sometimes

God please

Prep me for this fight
