Did You Think to Pray? is a simple, yet lush arrangement of a favorite Christian hymn. The message is a reminder of the privilege and blessing we each have to turn to the Lord in prayer each day, in good times and in bad.

Works well in small groups or larger choirs.

Text

Ere you left your room this morning,
Did you think to pray?
In the name of Christ, our Savior,
Did you sue for loving favor
As a shield today?

[Chorus]
Oh, how praying rests the weary,
Prayer will change the night to day.
So, when life gets dark and dreary,
Don't forget to pray.

When your heart was full of anger,
Did you think to pray?
Did you plead for grace my brother,
That you might forgive another
Who had crossed your way?

[Chorus]

When sore trials came upon you,
Did you think to pray?
When your soul was full of sorrow,
Balm of Gilead did you borrow
At the gates of day

[Chorus]
