Prayer — Petra

First I want to thank You Lord for being who You are
For coming to the rescue of a man who’s drifted far
For calling me to be Your son and calling me to serve
Lord the way You’ve blessed my life is more than I deserve

Keep the ones I love so dearly, Fill their emptiness while I am gone, And fill the loneliness in me

Chorus:
This is my prayer, Lifted to You, Knowing You care even more than I do
This is my prayer, Lifted in Your name, Your will be done I humbly pray

Let me be the evidence of what Your grace can do
To a generations struggling to find themselves in You
May they come to know the love of God
May their eyes be made to see
Give me the opportunity to share the truth that sets them free
And may unity in all things
Be the banner of Your church
And let revival’s fire begin to burn

As we face the last and final hours
Turn a wayward country back to You
And keep us from the evil that devours
Keep us on the path and lead us through
Keep us in Your light until Your kingdom comes
And our work is done

This is my prayer, Lifted to You, Knowing You care so much more than I do
This is my prayer, In Jesus’ name, Your will be done I humbly pray
This is my prayer
