Only A Prayer Away

by Len Magee

on The Presence Of Your Spirit Lord (1974), King of Kings (2021)

[Verse 1]
One day I heard the ancient story
Of a cross on a hill far away
And now I've a friend up in glory
And He's only a prayer away

[Chorus]
O He never would say: 'I'm too busy today'
Every tear, every care, He's promised He will share
And although He's the Lord of all glory
Yet He's only a prayer away

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I don't feel much like praying
But He speaks words of love just the same
And deep in my soul there starts flowing
Living waters, songs of praise to His name

[Chorus]
O He never would say: 'I'm too busy today'
Every tear, every care, He's promised He will share
And although He's the Lord of all glory
Yet He's only a prayer away

[Verse 3]
If I keep the cross e'er before me
As I die I will live day by day
If I sin, If I fall, He'll restore me
For He's only a prayer away

[Chorus]
O He never would say: 'I'm too busy today'
Every tear, every care, He's promised He will share
And although He's the Lord of all glory
Yet He's only a prayer away
