Somebody Prayed

Lyrics

Every night there by your bed
You fold your hands and bow your head
Throwing out another prayer in faith
When you’re wondering if He’s hearing you
Look at me, I’m living proof
I’m only right where I am today
Because somebody prayed

So I hit my knees ’cause I’ve
Seen all Heaven move
Don’t matter if you hit rock bottom
My God pick you up when you call Him
I pray, “Father, please” ’cause I’ve
Seen what He can do
Don’t matter if the storm cloud coming
My God come through when you call Him
These hands have no power
But there ain’t an hour He don’t come through
That’s why when mountains move, I say
“Looks like somebody prayed”

For the child of God that’s far from home
The one who thinks they’re too far gone
I’m throwing out another prayer in faith
Prayer in faith
Worn-out altars, tear-stained pews
Still I won’t give up on you
I believe that anything can change
When somebody prays

So I hit my knees ’cause I’ve
Seen all Heaven move
Don’t matter if you hit rock bottom
My God pick you up when you call Him
I pray, “Father, please” ’cause I’ve
Seen what He can do
Don’t matter if the storm cloud coming
My God come through when you call Him
These hands have no power
But there ain’t an hour He don’t come through
That’s why when mountains move, I say
“Looks like somebody prayed”

I’ve seen miracles come from feeble words
I’ve seen hospital rooms turned into cathedrals
I’ve seen freedom come to the prisoner
You can’t tell me that prayer don’t work

So every night there by your bed
When you fold your hands and bow your head
Not a single word you’ve ever said in vain
‘Cause He hears everything

So I hit my knees ’cause I’ve
Seen all Heaven move
Don’t matter if you hit rock bottom
My God pick you up when you call Him
I pray, “Father, please” ’cause I’ve
Seen what He can do
Don’t matter if the storm cloud coming
My God come through when you call Him
These hands have no power
But there ain’t an hour He don’t come through
That’s why when mountains move, I say
“Looks like somebody prayed”
