Words and Music by Johnny Lange and Jimmy Duncan
[Verse 1]
I asked the Lord to comfort me
When things werenât going my way,
He said to me I will comfort you,
And lift your cares away.
[Verse 2]
I asked the Lord to walk with me,
When darkness was all that I knew,
He said to me âNever be afraid,
For I will see you through.â
[Bridge]
I didnât ask for riches,
He gave me wealth untold-
The moon, the stars, the sun, the sky,
And gave me eyes to behold.
[Chorus]
I thank the Lord for everything,
And I count my blessings each day,
He came to me when I needed Him,
I only had to pray,
And Heâll come to you if you ask Him to
Heâs only a prayer a - way.
[Chorus]
I thank the Lord for everything,
And I count my blessings each day,
He came to me when I needed Him,
I only had to pray,
And Heâll come to you if you ask Him to
Heâs only a prayer a - way.
