Prayer Changes Things

Representative Text

1 Out in the garden I go to pray,
Out in the garden at cool of day;
Blessings like rivers are flowing there,
For prayer changes things.

Refrain:
Prayer changes things,
Prayer changes things;
Darkest of night will turn to light,
For prayer changes things.

2 Out in the garden alone with me,
Hope fills my heart when my Lord I see;
Precious the hours that I spend with Him,
When prayer changes things. [Refrain]

3 Out in the garden He calls to you;
Waiting to bless you and help you too;
Find all you need in His loving arms
Where prayer changes things. [Refrain]
