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)
