Capo on 3rd (or 2nd depending on vocal range)

Em      Father, hear my prayer, I need the perfect words     C

The words that he will hear   Am

And know they're straight  D  from you

Em I don't know what to say, I only know it    C    hurts

To see my    Am (x02210@1)  only friend    C (x32010@1) slowly fade away   D (xx0232@1)So maybe  G  this time, I'll speak the  D  words of light

With Your  C  fire in my eyes    Am

But that old  G  familiar fear, is tearing  D  at my words

What am I so   Em  afraid of   C

Cause here I go G again, talking about the  D  rain,

And mulling over  C   things, that won't live past   D   today,

And as I dance around the  Em  truth, time is not his  C  friend,

This might be my  Am   last chance,  C  to tell Him that you  Am love him

Here I go  D  again

Lord, You love him so, You gave Your only Son
If he will just believe, he will never die
But how then will he know, what he has never heard
Lord, he has never seen mirrored in my life

Repeat Chorus 2x
