Father, hear my prayer   I need the perfect words   Words that he will hear   And know they're straight from You   I don't know what to say   I only know it hurts   To see my only friend slowly fade away      So maybe this time I'll speak the words of life   With Your fire in my eyes   But that old familiar fear is tearing at my words   What am I so afraid of?      'Cause here I go again   Talking' bout the rain   And mulling over things that won't live past today   And as I dance around the truth   Time is not his friend   This might be my last chance to tell him that   You love him   But here I go again,   Here I go again      Lord, You love him so, You gave Your only Son   If he will just believe; he will never die   But how then will he know what he has never heard   Lord he has never seen mirrored in my life      CHORUS:      So maybe this time I'll speak the words of life   With Your fire in my eyes   But that old familiar fear is tearing at my words   What am I so afraid of?      'Cause here I go again   Talking' bout the rain   And mulling over things that won't live past today   And as I dance around the truth   Time is not his friend   This might be my last chance to tell him that   You love him   But here I go again,   Here I go   Here I go   So maybe this time I'll speak the words of life   With your fire in my eyes, but that old familiar fear   is tearing at my words   What am I so afraid of   'Cause here I go again   Talking about the rain   And mulling over things that won't live past today   And as I dance around the truth   Time is not his friend   This might be my last chance to tell him that You love him   This might be my last chance to tell him that You love him   This might be my last chance to tell him that You love him   You love him, You love him   What am I so afraid   What am I so afraid   What am I so afraid of?   How then will he know   What he has never heard
