[F]First I want to thank You Lord for [Am/E]being who You are
For[Bb2/D] coming to the rescue of a [C/E]man who's drifted far
For c[F]alling me to be Your son and [Am/E]calling me to serve
[Bb2/D]Lord the way You've blessed my life is[Bbm/Db] more than I deserve
[Dm]Keep the ones I [Dm/C]love so dearly[F9], fill their emptiness while I am g[Bb]one
And[Bbm/Db] fill the loneliness in [F]me, in [C]me
Chorus:
T[D7]his [/E]is [/F#]my p[Gm]rayer, [C/E]lifted to Y[F]ou, [Bb/D]knowing You c[Eb]are even m[F]ore than I [Bb]do
T[D7]his [/E]is [/F#]my p[Gm]rayer [C/E]lifted in Your n[F]ame
[Bb/D]Your will be d[Eb]one, I h[F]umbly p[Bb]ray
Let me be the evidence of what Your grace can do
To a generation struggling to find themselves in You
May they come to know the love of God
May their eyes be made to see
Give me the opportunity to share the truth that sets them free
And may unity in all things be the banner of Your church
And let revival's fire begin to burn, begin to burn
CHORUS
[Gb]As we face the last and final h[Bbm]ours[/C] [/Db] [/F]
[Gb]Turn a wayward country back to [Bbm]You[/C] [/Db] [/F]
And [C#m/E]keep us from the [C#m]evil that de[G#m]vour[/A#]s[/B] [/D#]
[E]Keep us on the p[C#m]ath and lead us t[G#m]hrou[/A#]gh[/B] [/D#]
And [Bm/D]keep us in Your l[Bm]ight until Your [F#]kingdom comes
And our w[C#]ork is done
[D#7]This[/E#] is [/G]my [G#m]prayer, [C#/E#]lifted to [F#]You, [B/D#]knowing You c[E]are so much m[F#]ore than I [B]do
[D#7]This[/E#] is [/G]my [G#m]prayer,[C#/E#] in Jesus' n[F#]ame
[B/D#]Your will be d[E]one I h[F#]umble p[G#m]ray[/F#] [C#/E#] [F#] [/E] [B/D#]
[E]This [F#]is my p[B]rayer, t[E]his [F#]is my p[B]rayer
