Prayer for Oklahoma
“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” ~ Philippians 4:6-7
Our hearts ache with you,
Our prayers we lift high,
To see the devastation,
To hear the children cry,
To know of the lives
We lost on that day,
Yes, for you, Oklahoma,
We mourn and we pray.
You are not alone,
We are grieving with you,
Praying for God’s healing
To restore and renew.
May the souls we lost
Be in His loving arms,
Resting where there will be
No more storms.
Your bravery and courage
We respect and admire,
Amidst the chaos
Our hearts you inspire.
Oklahoma, remember now
That we are right here,
With each prayer we lift
And with each shed tear.
God brings good
From the worst trial,
So may this truth encourage
You all the while.
Restoration you will see,
Renewal in each street,
Rebuilding of homes,
Yes, revival complete.
Yes, for you, Oklahoma,
We mourn and we pray,
We long for the renewal
You will see one day.
Our prayers we lift high
Our hearts ache with you,
And we admire the bravery
Shining in all you do.
