Can I Pray For You?

I've been your friend for a while.
I know you're hiding behind that smile,
And you're keeping inside tears that should have been cried.

You've been brave through this trial;
You've been as strong as a stone
Against the stormy winds that have blown.
But you have friends who care,
More than willing to share.
Don't face those troubles alone.


Can I pray for you?
Can I mention your name to the Lord?
When I seek His face, can I plead your case?
That's what praying is for.
I'll help you carry your cross
And find the way when you're lost.
If we'll let Jesus be true,
I know that He'll see you through.
Can I pray for you?


I know that there'll come a day
When I'll have trials and need you to pray.
Just like you've done before,
You'll mention me to the Lord.
That's why I'm here to say,
"Let me be there for you.
We'll divide all your problems by two.
And very soon there'll be three-
You and Jesus and me.
That's what friends are supposed to do."
