Father, I pray for all those that are hurting today, That their hurting would soon go away.
I don't know all the things they are going through, But You do.
I don't know what many are having to face today, A husband, a wife that has gone astray.
That they would return to Jesus that is the way, To the One that reaches out for them today.
Father, many need an answer for their life, It is filled with misery, toil and strife.
We pray for the widows with their struggles, all alone, Come visit them and let Your presence be known.
Parents with children on drugs, who have run away, I pray they would soon return, maybe today.
These sorrows are not hid from You, You have the answer, and know what to do.
Many have hurts that never occurred in my life,
The aches and pains, even friends that cause strife.
We pray for parents, who are on alcohol and drugs, And children whose mom and dad are not giving them hugs.
Lord, You see those marriages that are unfaithful, Those having good wives or husbands but are ungrateful.
Lord, we pray for the marriages that are falling apart, I pray You would give them a new start.
Lord, I pray for the children that are being used, Things never meant to be; they are being abused.
And for the elderly, Lord I pray,
As long as possible at home they might stay.
Jesus, You know all the hurts they are going through; I know personally He will be there for you.
If you don't know Jesus, ask Him into your heart, He will give you a brand new start.

How long Lord since my burdens You helped bear?
How long since any time with me You did spare?
Once grace did abound,
Now when I need You most, You can't be found.
Don't You see my troubles and my fears? Can't You see all this pain and my tears?
How much longer Lord must I wait?
You know, sin I also hate.
I wish I was dreaming and this would go away, But You don't come, and it continues day after day.
If I could, I would take care of these things.
So much was between us; now so little remains.
I find myself in such a plight,
I need help when my battles I fight.
Lord, come won't You?
Isn't there something You would do?
Is there more on the way?
Is there something You will do today?
I sure wish I knew.
If there's more, I don't know what I will do.
Why must the problems always stay?
From things that grieve You, I have stayed away.
You said for us to ask.
Then why is getting an answer such a task?
I know you have served Me from your youth, And you have held on to the truth.
The answer you are looking for is just ahead.
You will be glad, as I have said.
