Every Prayer
The rain falls, sweet Jesus
A farmer's beets and beans, you're needed
It'll take every single drop ya got
To save those fields
Truck stop, Arizona
Teen runaway from Oklahoma
Bet the next stranger that picks her up
Had angel's will
There they are, looking up
Wondering if He's watching over us
Saying, "Oh, please, could ya give a little sign"
Down here, it's day to day
A tug of war in fear and faith
And, even when their hope is fading
He hears every prayer they're praying
A waiting room down at St. Jude's
Mom and Dad could use a little good news
Maybe a spare miracle
Is only eight years old
There they are, looking up
Wondering if He's watching over us
Saying, "Oh, please, could ya give a little sign"
Down here, it's day to day
A tug of war in fear and faith
And, even when their hope is fading
He hears every prayer they're praying
All we need is a little sign
Down here, it's day to day
A tug of war in fear and faith
And, even when their hope is fading
He hears every prayer they're praying
The world turns like a top
With the hum of the voices that don't ever stop
But He hears, yeah, He always hears
Every prayer they're praying
Every prayer they're praying
Every prayer they're praying
