Story behind the song
"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14 "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knowck and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened" Matthew 7:7-8 "This then is how you should pray: 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power, and the glory forever. Amen'" Matthew 6:9-13
Lyrics
Church bells were ringing. Half empty pews The faithful had gathered to pray The pastor walked in and he shared the bad news Their country moved farther astray From the pulpit he spoke to his small congregation Clinging to every word that he said At the alter they knelt as he gave invitation As he opened his bible and read If my people called by my name will turn from evil Seek my face and pray. I will heal their land When will we understand? (to chorus) (chorus) When we pray, we have strength to move mountains Ask and receive, through faith we believe when we pray Our God will open the fountains and pour out his blessings on us Knock it will open. If we put our hope in the one who created each day Nothing can stand in our way when we pray (2nd verse) She kissed her daughter goodnight as she sent her to bed Knowing the future looked bleak Her husband was gone leaving her all alone And the bills were all due the next week She picked up her bible and started to read how her God had promised to provide every need. She dropped to her knees in prayer Suddenly she was aware (to chorus) (bridge) It changes my heart so that I can see When the answers are not what I want them to be You’re still in control. It’s in the palm of your hand And it all works for good in accord with your plan One day I know maybe I’ll understand (to 3rd verse) (3rd verse) Time was now fleeting. It seemed death would come The doctor said there was no way In a small little room just down the hall The family all gathered to pray (to chorus)
