[Verse 1]
Is the music on?
[Verse 2]
(Come on, Troy Sneed)
I woke up this morning
I was feeling kind of down 'cause I
Went to bed with a problem
A solution could not be found (Yeah)
I thought that I could run away
But then it smacked me in my face
I was hopin' it would stop but it did not
[Verse 3]
(Mmm) See, if I'm gonna have to deal with this
God, you must take control of this
'Cause I have no more tears to fall
My pillow and sheets done soaked 'em all (I've been there)
Went down on my knees to pray
But this thorn in my side won't go away
I am drained and I'm so weak
God, I know you're listening to me
[Verse 4]
(I know You hear me) I'm callin' on you, Father
(I know You hear me) You're right there
(I know You hear me) In my time of trouble
(I know You hear me when I pray) Ha, yeah
(I know You hear me) When I'm weak
(I know You hear me) You're right here
(I know You hear me) I can talk to You
(I know You hear me when I pray) Mmm, yeah
[Verse 5]
And those are prayers (Sing, Troy)
Though I question God, you may feel like you're all alone
And life is hard
What am I supposed to do? (Yeah)
Which way should I choose?
If I go left, was right (Sometimes I'm so confused)
See, I'm just makin' ends meet
Barely got enough to feed my family and (It's hard)
We ain't got a steak on the grill (But I'm still grateful)
But a dinin' room table full of bills
[Verse 6]
As I sit here to go through
I see the repo's comin' soon (Yeah)
Bad news I seem to earn
I ask you, God, "When's my turn?"
[Verse 7]
(I know You hear me) Yeah
(I know You hear me) I've been patient
(I know You hear me)
(I know You hear me when I pray) When I pray
(I know You hear me) When I call on you
(I know You hear me) You're always there
(I know You hear me) And You hear me, Father
(I know You hear me when I pray) Every time I lay
[Verse 8]
I lay waitin' on an answer
Desperately from You (Yeah)
Lord, I need You right now
Don't know what to do
I'm not movin' by myself (Can't do it)
I consult nobody else (Yeah)
So I call on You (Call on You, Jesus)
[Verse 9]
I've been waitin' here so long
By Your strength I carry on
I'm still holdin' on (That's how I make it)
Faith is goin' strong (I trust You)
I just wanna do right, (Yeah)
So I want to row
[Verse 10]
(I know You hear me) Put your hands up
(I know You hear me) Whoa
(I know You hear me) Like you got faith
I know
(I know You hear me when I pray) Yeah
When I pray
(I know You hear me) When I'm on my knees
(I know You hear me) Prayer still works
(I know You hear me) I'm beggin', Father
(I know You hear me when I pray) This is why I pray
[Verse 11]
Now, lay me down to sleep
(I know You hear me) I come boldly
I pray to God my soul to keep
(I know You hear me) To Your throne of Grace
(I know You hear me when I pray) As a matter of fact
When I got up this morning (I know You hear me)
Yeah
I look to the hills (I know You hear me)
Yeah
I look to the hills (I know you hear me)
You hear me, God
Oh
(I know You hear me when I pray) When nobody else has time
[Verse 12]
I'm gonna stay right here, Jesus (I know You hear me)
You hear me, Father
(I know You hear me) I'm gonna stay right here, Lord
(I know You hear me) When nobody else is concerned about what I'm goin' through
(I know You hear me when I pray) Prayer changes things
[Verse 13]
(I know You hear me) The silent tears
I know You hear me (I know You hear me)
The pain
Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh
(I know You hear me) That nobody else knows about
But You hear me when I pray (I know You hear me when I pray)
[Verse 14]
Ah, because faith, yeah (I know You hear me)
(I know you hear me) Connected with prayer
I got somebody (I know You hear me)
Will give you deliverance
Who I can run to (I know You hear me when I pray)
Hallelujah
Put a little pray on the top (I know You hear me)
In the time of trouble (I know You hear me)
I know You hear me
Ooh-oh (I know You hear me)
(I know You hear me when I pray) You said You'd heard me
[Verse 15]
I'll tell You all of my problems
You said You'd protect me
I'll give You all of my burdens
You said You'd deliver me
Pledging this day
(I know You hear me when I pray) I know You hear me, woo
[Verse 16]
(I know You hear me) Hallelujah
I know You hear me (I know You hear me)
Savior
I know You feel me (I know You hear me )
I feel better now
I know you hear me
'Cause I know You hear me (I know You hear me when I pray)
[Verse 17]
I turned down the plate (I know You hear me)
Yeah, Troy
I done turned off the radio (I know You hear me)
Troy, He's listenin' to us
(I know you hear me) I don't even watch much TV
(I know You hear me when I pray)
[Verse 18]
Because I got a wavelength here (I know You hear me)
Yeah
I'm gonna wait right here (I know You hear me)
Yeah
I'm gonna wait right here (I know You hear me)
Hallelujah
I know You hear me when I pray
[Verse 19]
Thank you
