IT PAYS TO PRAY

Hand in hand at the altar

In tears of celebration
We'd never seen them smile like this before
She'd spent her life 'a prayin'
On bended knee 'a stayin'
And this morning he surrendered to the Lord
There's a message in their story
Only God can get the glory
When a child of His keeps knocking at the door
It pays to pray
It pays to call upon His name
It pays to pray
To see a miracle displayed
You'll forget the word, "impossible"
When you seek the Savior's face
You'll know He will make a way
It pays to pray
You're tempted to quit prayin'
You feel He's never listenin'
The time has come and you must make a choice
Do you stop believin'
Forget what you've been seekin'
Or do you resolve that Jesus hears your voice
He will hush the angel praises
Just to hear what you are sayin'
And at any moment now you will rejoice
(repeat chorus)
Prayer is just as big as God is
Prayer is just as strong as God is strong
Prayer can reach as far as God can reach
Don't ever give up, just pray

God wants to hear you sing

When the waves are crashing round you
When the fiery darts surround you
When despair is all you see
God wants to hear your voice
When the wisest man has spoken
And says, Your circumstance is as hopeless as can
be
Thats when God wants to hear you sing
He loves to hear our praise on our cheerful days
When the pleasant times outweigh the bad, by far
But when suffering comes along
And we still sing Him songs
That is when we bless the Fathers heart.

Heavens Hero featuring Champion of Love

Verse 1
He traded a palace for a stable to be born
Removed a royal diadem to receive a crown of thorns
Exchanged the praises of angels for the mockery of
men
This is heavens hero my Savior, Lord and Friend
(Chorus:)
Heavens Hero I will follow
He is the Captain of the free
He will champion my tomorrow
Heavens Hero is all Ill ever need
Verse 2
He is the one Christ. The one and only way
He paid the one price for a debt I could not pay
Hes the one in the present, the ending and the start
The one the only hero is the hero of my heart

(Sing chorus)
Youll know He will make a way
It pays to pray
Pray, just pray
It pays to pray
God Wants to hear you sing
Their chains were fastened tight
Down at the jail that night
Still Paul and Silas would not be dismayed
They said, Its time to lift our voice, sing praises to
the Lord
Lets prove that we will trust Him come what may

(Bridge:)
He is higher than the highest
Greater than the great
No one will ever take His crown away
Hes more mighty than the mightiest
He reigns from above
Hes the all time, undisputed, undefeated
Champion, the all time, undisputed, undefeated
champion, the all time undisputed, undefeated
champion
He will champion my tomorrow
Heavens hero, heavens hero, heavens hero
Is all I ever need. Hes all I need.
