Prayer for a Friend

12/2/2020

0 Comments

 
Many of us have friends who are struggling right now – whether financially, mentally, emotionally, physically or spiritually. So how do you even approach praying for them during this hard time in their life? How can I pray for you if you're the one currently struggling?  Sometimes just saying "Lord, I lift my friend up to You," is enough. God already knows the needs of your friend, but He still longs to hear your requests.
Song...Video with Lyrics: Prayer for a Friend by Casting Crowns
"Prayer For A Friend"
Lord, I lift my friend to You, I've done all that I know to do
I lift my friend to You
Complicated circumstances have clouded his view
Lord, I lift my friend up to You

I fear that I won't have the words that he needs to hear
I pray for Your wisdom, oh God, and a heart that's sincere
Lord, I lift my friend up to You

Lord, I lift my friend to You
My best friend in the world, I know he means much more to You
I want so much to help him, but this is something he has to do
And Lord, I lift my friend up to You

'cause there's a way that seems so right to him
But You know where that leads
He's becoming a puppet of the world, too blind to see the strings
Lord, I lift my friend up to You
My friend up to You

Lord, I lift my friend to You, I've done all that I know to do
I lift my friend to You
