Lyrics: Our Father in Heaven has given me a gift
A precious way that I can speak with Him.
I can pray and know that He is there for me,
And I know that this gift will not grow dim.
My Father in Heaven wants me to be like Him,
And when I pray my heart fills up with love.
The more I pray, the more I feel His love.
I can grow and become like God above.
When Father in Heaven has shared His gift with me,
And when His Spirit taught my heart to feel,
I will take what I know about his love for me
I will show others that His love is real.
Chorus:
Pray to know (Pray to know)
Pray to grow (Pray to grow)
Pray to show (Pray to show)
And I know He always hears me.
Pray to know (Pray to know)
Pray to grow (Pray to grow)
Pray to show (Pray to show)
For I know He's there for me.
For I know He's there for me.
