When I Pray

We heard him call you out
And by faith we had no doubt
We knew that you must follow and obey
Though your answering a call
I can't help but think of all
The times when you weren't so far away.

But when I pray for you,
The way I often do,
As I think of you each and everyday!
Though it seems we're far apart,
I know deep in my heart,
We'll be together when I pray!

I know you'll feel alone,
And oh, so far from home!
And the missing you grows harder every day,
But hold onto the promise,
That he will never leave us,
And know that your name's mentioned when I pray!

And when I pray for you,
The way I often do.
As I think of you each and every day!
Though it seems we're far apart,
I know deep in my heart,
We'll be together when I pray!

God will work all things for our good!
He gives me strength just like He said He would!
On my knees, your not so far away,
And I'm closest to you when I start to pray!

And when I pray for you,
The way I often do,
As I think of you each and every day!
Though it seems we're far apart,
I know deep in my heart,
We'll be together when I pray!
