To Kneel in Family Prayer

Words and music by Dan Carter

Simply; with feeling

1. Our fam’ly gathers daily to kneel in fam’ly prayer
When love’s flame brightly shines as we join with those who care.
A time of refuge, time of peace, a time of unity—
Our voices reaching t’ward eternity.

2. In times of struggle and when the world’s a lonely place
We kneel and troubles fade as we see each loving face
And in the stillness of the circle, heaven’s voice is heard.
How sweet to hear a Father’s gentle word.
And sometimes when I feel confused, my way does not seem clear,
Until I come with those I love to kneel in fam’ly prayer;
I find my answer there. It fades away my care.
Our fam’ly gathers daily to kneel in fam’ly prayer
When love’s flame brightly shines as we join with those who care.
A time of refuge, time of peace, a time of unity—
Our voices reaching t’ward eternity.
Our voices reaching t’ward eternity.
