Praying

Pearls and Dreams
Somebody's Praying Me Through

Pressing over me like a big blue sky
I know someone has me on their heart tonight
That's why I know it's gonna be alright
'Cause somebody's praying me through
Somebody's praying me through
It may be my Mother, it might be my Dad
Or an old friend I've forgot I had
But whoever it is I'm so glad that
Somebody's praying me through
Somebody's praying me through
Through the tears, through the rain
Through the sorrow, through the pain
It keeps bringing me through
Over and over again
So when you're drowning in a sea of hurt
And it feels like life couldn't get any worse
There's a blessing waiting to push back the curse
'Cause somebody's praying you through
Somebody's praying you through
Someone got down on their knees and prayed for me
Somebody's, somebody's praying you through

Somebody's Praying Me Through
Pressing over me like a big blue sky
I know someone has me on their heart tonight
That's why I know it's gonna be alright
'Cause somebody's praying me through
When I had to work those hours of sweat equity, but I knew that I'd spend the next 4 days in bed because of it. I knew, it was going to be ok ... because someone was praying.



Somebody's praying me through
It may be my Mother, it might be my Dad
Or an old friend I've forgot I had
But whoever it is I'm so glad that
Somebody's praying me through
I knew that my mom, my dad, my sister, my small group, my worship team, my prayer partners, my blog friends, my email friends, that I had people I didn't even know all over the world praying for me ... that I was going to make it, even when it was too much. When they changed the rules they shouldn't have changed. When things didn't seem fair ... when the road was cloudy ..when it was too much ... when I wasn't enough ... Someone was praying, and I knew that ... I was prayed through.



Somebody's praying me through
Through the tears, through the rain
Through the sorrow, through the pain
It keeps bringing me through
Over and over again
August, 104*, I had 117 hours left. My classmates were getting their houses. I needed to do this, but I was so sick from just working 4 hours ...how was I going to do this ... and God brings a song on the radio that reminds me that people are praying for me. "You can borrow mine, when your faith is low, you can borrow mine" I'm not alone, people are praying ... I can do this. In my weakness, HE is made strong.

So when you're drowning in a sea of hurt
And it feels like life couldn't get any worse
There's a blessing waiting to push back the curse Last night at dinner, Samuel said this was the most profound verse in the whole musical ... how many times did I come home in pain, physical pain from the hours I'd put in. I'd spend 4 hours working, and 4 days in bed recovering ... How many times did the conflict with Habitat put us at our wits end ? How many times did we think that we were drowning in the sea of dispair at how this was going to work out. How many times did the blessing push back the curse ... because of the prayers! The prayers that prayed us through!
'Cause somebody's praying you through
Somebody's praying you through
Someone got down on their knees and prayed for me
Somebody's, somebody's praying you through
