I was on my knees one day in prayer. I prayed, "My God, are you really there?" My hopes and fears were on my mind Could the answer be hard to find? My problems were much worse today than they had been in any way. Would he listen to my plea Or maybe turn away from me? I prayed. I did not ask in vain My request to quickly take the pain In my heart, from me this day and keep my troubles far away. Do I give up, or keep on trying to pray and hope, or was I dying? Why try, what would prayer do? But, then I stopped to remember you. You were the one that day in prayer. You prayed, "My God, are you really there?" God knew what should be done. To save the world, he sent his Son. I was the one who should have died. Instead you chose to be crucified. You suffered there in pain so Man Could live again to fulfill your plan. I was on my knees again in prayer. I prayed, "My God, are you still there?" Forgive me of my faithless thought and thank you for the love you brought. And Lord, I know that you're the one who gave to us your only Son to set us free from pain and sin so we could live with you again. Copyright © 2001 CEG
