Thank You For Praying – Phillips, Craig & Dean

Dm7  G7  Am  G/B  C  G/B  Am  G  F  G

  C                 F              G           C
I brushed some pine needles off of memories today
   C                F                   G          C  G/B
My fingers traced a stone etched with a date and a name
   Am             G    F                   Em
Of simple country lady so gentle yet so strong
    Dm7                           G
Her mem’ry floods my heart as I recall
    C              F                G                    C
She didn’t have a lot but there was something that she knew
       C                    F                 G             C  G/B
And it meant the world when she would say son I’ll pray for you
        Am               G           F                   Em
And whenever she would kneel beside her little rocking chair
      Dm7                         G
She’d turn her simple home into a holy house of prayer
    F                   Em
And though she’s gone away
         F               G       E/G#    Am  Am/G  D/F#  F  G
There’s something that I really want to say
C             F   C            G   C
Thank you for praying, praying for me
  C             F          C                   G    C
I never could repay the time you spent down on your knees
    F             Em
I’m where I am today
   F                   G       E/G#  Am  Am/G  D/F#
Because you chose to pray and intercede
F                     G
Thank you for praying, praying for me

Dm7  G7  Am  G/B  C  G/B  Am  G  F  G
C              F              G              C
Everyone has someone in your life you can recall
  C                     F                 G               C  G/B
A constant source of strength for you whenever you would fall
    Am                G        F                   Em
And when you felt so lonely in times of desperate need
    Dm7                                  G
You knew that you could count on them to be down on their knees
       F              Em
To our heroes of the faith
        F                  G         E/G#    Am  Am/G  D/F#  F  G

I’m where I am today
  F                    G      E/G#    Am  Am/G  D/F#
Because you chose to pray and intercede
F                    G
Thank you for praying
              F
And when that day comes and all things will be revealed
        Am                             G
And our Father lets us see with open eyes
        F
We will understand that we were carried on the wings
       Dm7                                 G
Of the prayers of faithful people in our lives
