What if the armies of the Lord
picked up and dusted off their swords
vowed to set the captive free
and not let satan have one more

what if the church for heavens sake
finally stepped up to the plate
took a stand upon God's promise
and stormed hell's rusty gates

(chorus)
What if his people prayed
and those who bear his name
would humbly seek his face...yeah!
and turn from their own ways

and what would happen if we prayed
for those raised up to lead the way
then maybe kids in school could pray
and unborn children see light of day

what if the life that we pursue
came from a hunger for the truth
what if the family turned to Jesus
stopped askin Oprah what to do

what if his people prayed
and those who bear his name
would humbly seek his face...yeah!
and turn from their own ways

he said that he would hear
his promise has been made
he'd listen loud and clear ...yea!
if only we would pray

(chorus)
What if his people prayed!
