Somewhere somebody is prayin tonight 

For a loved one who wandered away from the light 

But faith reaches Heaven and God is aware 

And forever it's changed in 

One moment of prayer 



(chorus) 

Oh there's power in prayer 

Power to spare 

All that you'd ever need 

Is waiting right there 

With just a few words 

A child's faith 

Then it's good - bye despair 

Oh there's power, so much power 

There's power in prayer 



An old man holds a body 

That's perilled in pain 

The doctors have tried but 

All hope is in vain 

Oh but wait somebody's prayin 

In the midst of the gloom 

And all at once the great physician 

Steps into the room 



(repeat chorus)
