[Capo 1st fret]
D G D
What if the armies of the Lord
D G D
Picked up and dusted off their swords
G C G
Vowed to set the captives free
Bm G D
And not let satan have one more
D G D
What if the church, for heaven's sake
D G Bm
Finally stepped up to the plate
D G D
Took a stand upon God's promise
G D
And stormed hell's rusty gates
1st Chorus:
A Bm G
What if His people prayed
G Bm A
And those who bare His name
A Bm G
Would humbly seek His face
G Bm A
And turn from their own way
D G D
And what would happen if we prayed
D G D
For those raised up to lead the way
G C G
Then maybe kids in school could pray
Bm G D
And unborn children see light of day
D G D
What if the life that we pursue
D G Bm
Came from a hunger for the truth
D G D
What if the family turned to Jesus
G ( D )
Stopped asking Oprah what to do
Chorus:
A Bm G
What if His people prayed
G Bm A
And those who bare His name
A Bm G
Would humbly seek His face
G Bm A
And turn from their own way
A Bm G
He said that they would hear
G Bm A
His promise has been made
A Bm G
He'll answer loud and clear
G Bm A
If only we would pray
G Bm A
If My people called by My name
Em7 D/F# G
If they'll humble themselves and pray
Em7 D/F# Bm A
If My people called by My name
Em7 D/F# G A
If they'll humble themselves and pray
