If you pray for me, tell the Lord I need him, mmmmm

I need to know he hears my prayers

And that he cares for me



If you pray for me, tell Lord that I love him, mmmmm

Even though it's hard sometimes

For me to see the light



Lately I have faced the darkest places

I have ever known

Well I hate to say it, lost my way

Found myself alone

'Cause I forgot that I have friends like you

Oh, who know just where to go



So, if you pray for me, tell the Lord I need him

I need to know he hears my prayers and that he cares for me



Oh, I guess I've tried to hide this lonliness

I'm so afraid to come around here

'Cause you might see right through me, yeah

You know my heart feels like an empty nest

A little help and understanding

Is what I'm so ready for

Don't let this hard expression fool ya anymore



If you pray for me, oh

If you pray, pray for me



If you pray for me, tell Lord that I love him, mmmmm

Even though it's hard sometimes

For me to see the light



So if you pray for me

If you pray for me

Tell the Lord I need him, need him

Tell the Lord I love him

I need to know he cares

And that he hears my prayers

And that he cares for me
