Trouble knockin' on your window pane,
Stormy weather at your door.
And the outlook for the day ahead- just like the day before.
People tell you prayin' changes things,
But the words don't stop your fear.
Prayer is only pious rebelling, but for a Father's ear...

He will not turn away- when His people pray.

When God's people pray,
And take the pains of earth to the doors of heaven.
When God's people pray,
There is hope reborn, there is sin forgiven.
And miracles you can't explain await,
When God' people pray.

Hopeless situation turns around, dilemma passes by and by.
Look- there's a never-ending field of blue past that clouded sky!
He alone can know the need in me, before a single word begins;
The Holy Spirit intercedes for me.
I will trust in Him!

He will not turn away- when His people pray.

When God's people pray,
And take the pains of earth to the doors of heaven.
When God's people pray,
There is hope reborn! There is sin forgiven!
And miracles you can't explain await!
When God's people pray!
And take the pains of earth to the doors of heaven...
When God's people pray!
There is hope reborn, there is sin forgiven.
And miracles you can't explain await!

When God's people pray!
And take the pains of earth to the doors of heaven...
When God's people pray!
There is hope reborn! There is sin forgiven!
And miracles you can't explain await!

When God's people pray,
When God's people pray,
Oh, When God's people pray...
