I Pray Because

Be still, my soul
My soul, be still
As I solemnly seek
An audience with my King

Draw near, oh Lord
Oh Lord, draw near
I wait for You
My worship bring

Who are You
But Holy God
Infinite in majesty
Worthy of all glory, honor, praise

Who am I
One saved by grace
Accept the call to intercede
To plead for others—head bowed, hands raised

So, I pray because You’re really there
I pray because You really care
I pray because You hear and power release
I pray because a difference makes
I pray because that’s what it takes
For blessings from heav’n to earth to increase

I pray because Your Name is True
That strength and healing come from You
I pray the lost and lonely find the Way
I pray Your will alone be done
Salvation found in Your Perfect Son
I pray Your Spirit move in hearts today

I pray because You hear each word
Believing each request is heard
I pray persistently and persevere
You sought for one to take a stand
To not be silent in this land
Humbly, in Your presence, I am here

About Arrow

Hi and welcome! My pen name is Arrow. The word “arrow” intrigues me because it has two meanings that describe my passions. One, it is an instrument used intentionally to reach a target, and two, it shows the way. As a believer and follower of Jesus Christ, my goals are to live for Him, lead others to Him, and glorify the Heavenly Father. I pray that the stories, poems, song lyrics, and devotional thoughts I share on this website will always be inspired by the Holy Spirit and aligned with the truths found in God’s Word. My hope is that the words may penetrate your heart and point the way to a closer relationship with the Savior. I look forward to sharing my journey with you. Experiencing what God has in store is bound to be exciting! May you be blessed! ~ Arrow
