"When I Pray"
Verse 1
Christine Joy walks through the shadows,
Carrying burdens no one can see,
Tears in the midnight, questions unanswered,
Searching for hope on her knees.
Though every storm seems stronger than ever,
And trials come day after day,
She hears a whisper from heaven above,
"Child, keep trusting My way."
Pre-Chorus
When the road is long and weary,
When her strength begins to fade,
She remembers God's promise,
And calls upon His name.
Chorus
When I pray, Heaven hears me,
God is near though I cannot see,
In my weakness, He gives me strength,
His grace will carry me.
Through the pain and through the fire,
His love remains the same,
I find peace for my troubled heart,
Every time I pray.
Verse 2
There were days when fear surrounded,
And dreams seemed so far away,
Yet God was working in every struggle,
Guiding each step of the way.
Though the mountains stood before her,
And the valleys felt so deep,
The Lord remained her refuge and shelter,
A faithful promise to keep.
Pre-Chorus
When the world says "give up trying,"
When the darkness fills the day,
She lifts her eyes toward Heaven,
And bows her heart to pray.
Chorus
When I pray, Heaven hears me,
God is near though I cannot see,
In my weakness, He gives me strength,
His grace will carry me.
Through the pain and through the fire,
His love remains the same,
I find peace for my troubled heart,
Every time I pray.
Bridge
Lord, You know every sorrow,
Every tear that falls unseen,
You have never left beside me,
You've been faithful through everything.
Though my journey may be difficult,
I know You're leading me,
For Your plans are good and perfect,
And Your love has set me free.
Final Chorus
When I pray, Heaven hears me,
God is near though I cannot see,
In my weakness, He gives me strength,
His grace will carry me.
Through the pain and through the fire,
His love remains the same,
Christine Joy will keep on trusting,
For Jesus knows her name.
Ending
So when life's storms are raging,
And hope seems far away,
The answer is found in Jesus Christ,
And the power of humble prayer.
