The Jesus Prayer     
Prayer you are my companion tried and true,
l get lost on rocks or in the floods mud mess,
Always we meet again we're friends anew,
When I find you in the valley of death, you still bless.

Prayer you are my companion tried and true,
Together for years and years in joy and tears,
Thru confusion thru sadness and attack I look through you,
The drama falls away and The Father appears.

Prayer you are my companion true and tried,
I read in the scriptures St. Paul said,
"Pray with out ceasing", I try with joy with sigh,
This overpowering challenge has kept me safe and fed.

Oh prayer you are my companion true and tried,
When I am done with my cross  I just hope that I won,
I know no men will never praise me far and wide,
For I look like a man of prayer to none.

Prayer our companion tried and true,
We walk with the Lord Jesus because of you,
Our faith and hope blossom that's what you do,
You spread The Fathers Word the whole world through.
