He's given hope through the ages
Give sight to the blind
Brought understanding to sages
And peace to troubled minds
To humble hearts, who will call His name
To all who will believe
[chorus]
He's watching with angels, He's ready to fly
One word, just a whisper, He's there
Knock and He'll open, seek and you'll find
Call on His name, He's the answer
Waiting for a prayer
He'll give you faith like a fire
To keep your feet on the path
And if it's mercy you require
He'll be the touch of Healing Hands
To humble hearts, who will call His name
To all who will believe
[chorus]
Fall on your knees and believe
The Father hears you when you pray
Anytime, night or day
And He will say
[chorus]
I'm watching with angels, I'm ready to fly
One word, just a whisper, I'll be there
Knock and He'll open, seek and you'll find
Call on His name, He's the answer
Waiting for a prayer
