Mommy, I hear the baby crying

Help me, are the words 

she's implying

Where've I been while my world has been dying

Lord, teach me how to pray



Not my will or my plans or 

the way I want it

I'm so tired of my hands in the way

So reveal to these eyes the true heart of my Father, today

Lord teach me how to pray



Daddy, I can hear Jesus crying

Help me, are the words 

He's implying

Am I sleeping while my Savior 

is dying

Lord, teach me how to pray



Not my will or my plans or 

the way I want it

I'm so tired of my hands in the way

So reveal to these eyes the true heart of my Father, today

Lord teach me how to pray



So I'll keep asking, for Your kingdom to come

Looking, for Your will to be done

For every nation, tribe, 

and every tongue

Lord, teach me how to pray
