PRAYER AND WATCHFULNESS

How Would Jesus Remain?

Late night quiet, early morning light
I stay connected, stay in the fight
Not just words, not routine
I listen close, I stay in between

Eyes open wide, heart in tune
I don’t drift, I stay with You

I stay prayed up, I stay awake
I don’t sleep through what’s at stake
Every breath, every day
I’m watching close while I pray
Yeah I’m watching close while I pray

When the world slows down or the pressure hits
I don’t lose focus, I don’t miss
Still small voice, guiding me
Keeps me sharp, keeps me free

Not on my own, not my strength
I lean in hard, I stay dependent

I stay prayed up, I stay awake
I don’t sleep through what’s at stake
Every breath, every day
I’m watching close while I pray

Prayer keeps me grounded
Watchful keeps me ready
One keeps me humble
One keeps me steady

Stay alert
Stay near
No fear
I’m here

I stay prayed up, I stay awake
Faithful in the wait
Through the night into the day
I’m watching close while I pray

Stay ready
Stay near
God be with you
Carry On!
