Prayer on the Wind

“Prayer on the Wind”

Verse 1

Out where the cottonwoods whisper low

And the old dirt road just rolls and rolls

I tip my hat to the morning sun

Thank the Lord for another one

For every soul walking lost tonight

For every heart in a hard-fought fight

I send a prayer on the prairie wind

Lord, let your mercy find them again

Chorus

Father in Heaven, hear this song

We’re just your children trying to hold on

Through broken roads and the shape we’re in

We lean on grace time and again

For every spirit on this old earth

Every daughter and every son

Thank you Jesus for what you’ve done

Your love still carries everyone

Verse 2

I’ve seen shadows a mile deep

Where grown men fall down on their knees,

But somewhere past the midnight sky

There’s a light no darkness can deny

So bless the weary and bless the poor

Bless every soul knocking on your door

And if my voice can ride the breeze

Lord let it fall where it’s meant to be

Chorus

Father in Heaven, hear this song

We’re just your children trying to hold on

Through broken roads and the shape we’re in

We lean on grace time and again

For every spirit on this old earth

Every daughter and every son

Thank you Jesus for what you’ve done

Your love still carries everyone

Bridge

For the lost, the hurt, the ones who roam

For the hearts that never felt like home

For the ones who almost slipped away

But woke to see another day

Final Chorus

Father in Heaven, hear this song

Your mercy’s where we all belong

Through every storm that we’ve been through

Your love makes broken people new

For every spirit on this old earth

Every daughter and every son

Thank you Jesus for what you’ve done

Your love saved every wandering one

Outro

So I’ll sing this prayer into the night

Under Heaven’s endless light

If this old song reaches anyone

May they feel the love of God’s own Son
