My mind is set on Jesus
Every moment of the day
And as each moment passes
I know He hears me pray
My strength is not in flesh and blood
Nor in the things I've gained
My strength comes from the prayers for me
From day to day to day.

So my prayer is for others
And not just for myself
The Lord loves intercessors
Who will rise and pray for health
So lift your voices high to Him
And pray a lofty prayer
For the prayer that's prayed for others
Is a prayer that often save

Pray for the sick among you
Pray for a friend in need
Pray for the one who's life
Has been filled with misery
Pray for the brokenhearted
Pray for the one who's bound
Pray for those whom Satan
Has driven to the ground

Pray for the lost and lonely
That they might find the light
Pray for the one whose fear
Keeps them trembling in the night
Pray for the poor and friendless
That they might find joy and peace
Pray for those you do not like
It will set your mind at ease.

But more than anything above
The prayer that is most dear
Is the prayer for those whose sin
Has them in the Devils snare
Pray that others eyes will open
Pray that their ears will hear
The message of salvation
Is delivered by a prayer.

My friends, this world is in deep need
Of men and women strong
Who will rise up in this last day
And pray all the day long
For when we lift our prayer to Him
He promises reply
I challenge you this very day
To lift your prayers up high.
