Moment by moment, by night or by day My Heavenly Father is not far away And He will be near when I whisper His name He is close as a quiet prayer Close as a quiet prayer When I am thankful for blessings He sends He smiles as I offer my praises to Him And when I'm alone and in need of a friend He is close as a quiet prayer Close as a quiet prayer I can pray to my Father above anytime, anywhere When I call He will always be close as a quiet prayer Whether I'm kneeling to seek Him in words Or silently praying, my heart will be heard His love will enfold me, His promise is sure He is close as a quiet prayer Close as a quiet prayer
