The Power Of A Prayer

Written by Matthew West

	  		Intro: A, Bm, G, D x2 

verse 1: 
     D         G  
Dear God, its me  
        D      G 
Calling out to You  
        D         G 
Tonight Im on my knees  
       Bm          A 
Hoping Youll come through  

verse 2: 
           D      G 
This ones for my dad  
        D        G 
Can You help him please  
            D        G 
The worlds made him mad  
   Bm      A 
At mom and me  

Pre-Chorus 
        G                                  A 
And Im asking you to bring his heart back home  

Chorus: 
A   Bm  G   D   A   Bm      G          D 
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, the power of a prayer  

verse 3: 
       D     G 
Mom is all I have  
          D           G 
But shes alone again tonight  
            D       G 
They always used to laugh  
             Bm    A 
Now all they do is fight  

verse 4: 
           D          G 
She says I love that man  
            D        G 
But hes so far from You  
           D       G 
Shes done all she can  
        Bm          A 
But she cant break through  

Pre-Chorus 
          G                                   A 
And shes begging You to bring his heart back home  

Chorus: 
A   Bm  G   D   A   Bm      G          D 
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, the power of a prayer x2 

Bridge: 
G                     Bm 
Just a whisper in the dark  
                     D 
Spoken from a broken heart  
                       G 
Holding on to one last strand of faith  
G                            Bm 
Somewhere in the world right now  
                           D 
A desperate soul is crying out  
                    G 
Hoping Jesus really hears us when we pray  

Instrumental: A, Bm, G, D x2 

Verse 5: 
     D       G 
Dear God, do You  
     D       G 
Recognize my voice  
          D         G 
I havent talked to You  
      Bm             A 
Since I was a little boy  

Verse 6: 
    D                  G 
But tonight I heard my son  
     D           G 
Pray for his old man  
           D       G 
It made me come undone  
       Bm    A 
Made me understand  

Pre-Chorus 
     G                                A 
That only You can bring my heart back home  

Chorus: 
A   Bm  G   D   A   Bm      G          D 
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, the power of a prayer x2  

Please let me know if you find any mistakes in this. Also, I hope you enjoy  
playing this and God Bless! (P.S. I know that there are not any apostrophes. There  
is a glitch on the site that makes them #s.)
