Unspoken Request
by The Perrys

Album: Through The Night

They gathered together
To talk with the Father
And share every need on their minds
Praying for family
And friends who were hurting
For a fresh touch from God on their lives
A hand soon was lifted
And the pastor acknowledged
A dear lady there in the pew
She stood to her feet
To request prayer for me
In a way that nobody knew

I was somebody's unspoken request
The reason for their tears and pain
The saints joined together
To lift me in prayer
Without even knowing my name
Laid on the altar and given to God
Trusting the Father knows best
I stand here redeemed
And an answer from Heaven
To someone's unspoken request

Now God surely heard
All the folks who were praying
Fervently down on their knees
So unaware of my deep desperation
Yet each interceding for me
So, when I see someone
With a hand gently lifted
Asking the righteous to pray
I think of the time
When that burden was mine
And I know there's still power in His name

I was somebody's unspoken request
The reason for their tears and pain
The saints joined together
To lift me in prayer
Without even knowing my name
Laid on the altar and given to God
Trusting the Father knows best
I stand here redeemed
And an answer from Heaven
To someone's unspoken request

I was somebody's
Yes, I was somebody's
Somebody's unspoken request
