I Asked the Lord

[Verse 1]
I asked the Lord to comfort me
When things weren't going my way
He said to me, "I will comfort you
And lift your cares away"

[Verse 2]
I asked the Lord to walk with me
When darkness was all that I knew
He said to me, "Never be afraid
For I will see you through"

[Bridge]
I did not ask for riches
He gave me wealth untold
The moon, the stars, the sun, the skies
And He gave me eyes to behold

[Verse 3]
I thank the Lord for everything
And I count my blessings each day
He camе to me when I needed Him
And I only had to pray

[Outro]
Hе'll come to you if you ask Him to
He is only a prayer away
