I was watching the local Christian station one night when I was having trouble sleeping and Worship.Net was on. They were playing a song that just completely calmed me and all I could remember of it were “hear my prayer” and “leads me to the rock that is higher than I”. It came on a few more times and I remembered something about Praise 16 in the album title.
Last week, I finally found it on Maranatha’s website and ordered the album. Here are the words:
Hear my prayer, O Lord
From the ends of the earth I cry
Your peace will lead me to
The Rock that is higher than I
For you have been my strength in times of trouble
A tower above my enemies
And Lord, I will abide with you forever
In the shelter of your wings
–“Hear My Prayer” by Debbie Owens
had this song on my mind lately as well. My pastor sang it during a service and have been wondering about its title and singer for about 2 weeks. It’s a nice and wonderful song. Made me cry when I heard it, and really felt the peace of God in my heart as I hear it.
This is so awesome to read. Debbie Owens is my mom. I love seeing how her songs touch people.
